Pistol permit for reloading?

[Holland]

So my buddy went to Cabela's today to get some Hornady die bushings and he's telling me that they made him show his pistol permit. Has anyone else heard of this?

There are better prices on MidwayUSA and of all other places Amazon.

Not required. Reloading is just a hobby ... just a hobby ... just a hobby ...

That is sad to see happening. For now, down here in free America, Cabela's is fine, and has none of that BS here in SC. As for Dick's, they are still around, but I gave up ever shopping there anymore about 10 years ago, and have no regrets about that.

Hahahaha!

Fuck Cabela's then and their woke shit if this is true!

Should have asked for a manager and explanation! Making sure the manager understood the answer would be published across Firearm Forums and enthusiast web sites!

End of story!

I’m having a hard time with this. I’ve bought a variety of reloading components, tools and other items from cabelas. I was only asked for payment.

 

[Holland]

He did ask. He also asked about if he was loading rifle. Dude told him he would have to get a manager then

Same here. This was the first time I've heard of it. I definitely plan on testing it as my permission slip is still in the works

ONLY reason for us going in there was the need to pee...well and I had a $50. Gift Card used to buy Wool Socks in the clearance Bin.

Go full "Ken" on 'em!

Yea, I'd have played dumb then dropped the hammer, then reported it here.

The answer why will be the same as buds guns not selling me ammo.
“because it’s our policy”

Its called capitulation. Box stores making up compliance rules to stay in favor. I love Cabela's for it hunting clothing and other Cabela's branded stuff but don't buy other branded stuff there that you can get online for much less money.

 

[Darth]

Even if you were buying the complete rounds it would be inappropriate to ask that question.

People need to keep calling these snakes out.

It's why I never purchase ammo from Walmart anymore. Not even shotgun rounds.
They were one of the first to declare they were no longer selling pistol ammo, nor 556/223 ammo. They also have gone full brownshirt with any and all NY requirements, and even some that NY hasn't gotten around to yet.
And their employees response when challenged is "if you don't like it go somewhere else".

Glad I had visited a 'free state' to pick up some 'stuff' away from the eyes of our 'overlords'. No questions asked there.

And I make it clear that I do go elsewhere.

Larry's Pawn & Gun in Huntsville Alabama has pallets of Rimfire and out perennial NATO Flavors...when Dove Season comes around you can buy all you can afford with nothing more than thank you, y'all come back!

Which Cabelas did he visit? I’m assuming he went to the one in CT.
That’s ridiculous to be asked to see his permit for “die bushings”.
I won’t shop in CT for supplies.
(Should have gone to PA)

My son has not put one foot in a Walmart since they announced that they were not selling pistol or 556/223 etc ammo.
A true man of principle.

Some Gang bangers are reloading! .0000000000087% of em.

Judging by the mish-mash of ammunition often shown in SP Photos of confiscated Guns, it would seem most of their ammo was dug out of the Trash Barrel at the Range.

So I stopped by Cabelas in Cheektowaga to buy some small pistol primers. I was too impatient to wait for some ordered offline. And as they ring them up a message popped up on the computer saying to verify pistol license as they will be used for pistol ammunition or something to that variety. The older lady hit ignore and took my money.

So @Holland your friend was definitely right about I’d for reloading supplies.

Friend of mine said basspro wanted his drivers license to by rifle dies. He left the store without the dies.

I recall nothing about reloading components in any passes or even proposed Legislation...trial Balloon?

I was talking with one of the old guys working the firearms counter. He said the management at Cabela’s is terrified of dealing with NYS on anything and they regularly go to them for clarification and advice. I think I’m done with Cabelas.

Exactly right. Lawyers and legislators. The liability from manufacturers thru user has a lot of them worried. “Pistol” ammo isn’t defined in NYS law (Ohio does) but to buy pistol ammo you must have a permit. An obscure law that has been there for a long time. Now they (big box stores) are getting ahead of our knowledgeable legislature. Brownells, Natchez, Midway all treat their reloaders well as well as your small local gun store

Agreed! I`m done with quite a few of the big names, Asspro/Cornedholebelas, Sportsmens Whorehouse, Midway, etc etc etc.

I`m at a point in my life where i don`t need these places anymore, for anything that they sell.
