I have not applied, but does not vets registered with VA get some kind of card? Maybe not, I am not sure. I to very rarely have to show my ID card, they normally plug the discount right in when I so state. O'Reillys auto parts is the only retailer I have encountered that ask for the last four on the ID card.
Nice looking gun. And thanks for your service.I served in Vietnam in 1968 and was WIA, today my VA disability rating is 100%.
I get discounts at Lowes and Home Depot but the biggest bang for the buck comes from firearms manufactures. S&W gives a 40% discount, Kimber does have a program but you've got to call at the right time because they have a quota. Sig has a program and they even sent me the price list. All you have to do is ask, just call and ask if they have a military pricing discount program. I almost forgot Glock. I have a "Retired USMC" ID card and a VA medical treatment card. Fusion is a custom hand gun maker and he gave me a great discount, labor only was what I paid. Here's a peek at it:
I wrote an e-mail to S&W stating that I was an 18-yr disabled Vietnam Vet and they wrote back that the "only thing that they have at this time," is a Fifty or One Hundrded Dollar mail in rebate. Nothing mentioned about a discount at all.I served in Vietnam in 1968 and was WIA, today my VA disability rating is 100%.

If you are a vet what do you use to prove it, carrying your dd214 is a pain, Is there an ID you can get.
