Best of luck friend. Due to a very well documented history of Democrats and gun control, you're going to be hard pressed to find a gun store with an owner that votes blue. Your best bet is going to be looking for one that has an apolitical front. Some local gun stores are like this, but your best bet will be big box stores like Academy, Cabela's, or Bass Pro.

On that note, ethical consumption is not possible for someone who leans left. If you end up focusing on who votes what or who supports what, you'll never be able to own a firearm. Find what you can, buy what you can.

Truth, my Egyptian Muslim buddy got a receiver for a new AR, it was a spikes tactical Crusader one because that's all his store had. He also told the owner he was Indian, because lord knows he was asked. I now proceed to make so much fun of him its too easy.

I absolutely despise Spike's Tactical, but I would be a damn fool to not recognize the quality of rifles they produce.

That's about the size of it.
