The way I read the linked article, PayPal just don't list gun stores in their PayPal Shops portal.

I've seen examples of more direct action.

For example, Soldier's Angels had their entire PayPal account disabled for simply processing the payments for a raffle where one prize was a pistol.

They were simply selling raffle tickets for someone else's raffle, and they're a registered charity, but PayPal is very strict: it's "relate[d] to sales of … (h) ammunition, firearms, or certain firearm parts or accessories", so boom, account disabled.
