No attorney would ever be dumb enough to let a business be named "***pal" and try to replicate a payment system that is patented (yes patented) by a company named "payPAL", which in itself is a trademarked name. No attorney, not even the craziest one. They can't possibly have any legal retention for that company. I don't use them because I don't want money sitting in an account when they go down, and if they are (for lack of a better word, but I don't mean that in a condesending tone) "dumb" enough to make the mistake of originally calling it gunpal, my mind says: what other mistakes are they making? As the saying goes, the road to hell is paved with the best of intentions. Just because it was founded on a good premise doesn't make it a good idea.

If they renamed themselves, it would have little to do with PC if they took the "pal" out. if "pal" is still in there, then WOW. So what are they called now?
Foxtrot,

I'm not 100% sure but when I was searching online I couldn't find a site called "GunPal" but the searching led me to a site called "GPal" and that site led me to what I think was "GunPal".

As far as I knew it was "GunPal" and I have absolutely no idea why there was a change. I do applaud whoever created the company simply because someone decided to stand up against PayPal and their ideals and come up with a solution for people who want to buy/sell firearms and accessories legitimately using the internet. I believe there was a need for an alternate to PayPal and a company is trying to fill that need.

I don't like breaking rules/policy so if I wanted to purchase over the net I would prefer to use a company like GPal over doing the "discreet PayPal only" method and that's only IF they prove themselves to me as a reliable company that I can trust.
