US gun baron Kelly McMillan has announced the launch of a credit card processing solution for manufacturers and retailers of firearms.

McMillan founded McMillan Merchant Solutions (MMS) after being dropped as a customer by the Bank of America.

McMillan said: "As president of McMillan Group International, an established firearms company, I personally experienced the biases of a financial institution and realized the need for a competitive, firearms-friendly credit card processing company.

"McMillan Merchant Solutions’ strength is to provide a solid business partnership with companies and guarantee that we will never drop a customer because they are in the firearms industry."

A percentage of the new company’s turnover will go towards firearms associations, such as the National Shooting Sports Foundation.

McMillan said: "I have been very fortunate to have had a successful business in the firearms industry for over forty years. As a way to give back and help protect our Constitutional rights, I am committed to donating a portion of every credit card transaction made to firearms and outdoor associations."
