From Charlie Kirk: https://twitter.com/charliekirk11/status/1699612950196330924 Liberty Safe was sold to Monomoy Capital Partners in 2021, a liberal East Coast investment firm. I pulled the FEC reports on the company and found approximately $400,000 over the last 10 cycles of max donations to Democrats like: Raphael Warnock in GA John Fetterman in PA Mandela Barnes in WI Mark Kelly in AZ Liberty Safe’s current CEO, Justin Hillenbrand, was a founding partner of Monomoy and donated $4,600 to Obama for America. And we're supposed to be surprised they betrayed their customers to the FBI as quickly as humanly possible? Boycott Liberty Safe. https://mcpfunds.com/news/monomoy-capital-partners-agrees-to-acquire-liberty-safe-0/

I blame weaponized DOJ for the code part mostly. This on the other hand paints a different picture in combination with that. I’m aboard the bandwagon. I will not buy from Democrats if I have the option not to. |

It baffles me that people bought Liberty in the past when they are twice as expensive and objectively no better of an RSC than their competition. Either buy cheap safes that are just as good as Liberty or pony up for a real safe from a much, much better mfg. Liberty is Kimber of the safe world. |

Liberty manufactures a ton of safes for different brands under a bunch of various names. |

I will not buy from Democrats if I have the option not to. DOJ didn't make them create, retain or give up the back door code that they have for every Liberty Safe with an electronic lock set. That is the lowest common denominator, if you own a safe with an electronic lock set it is no safe at all. |

Don't get me wrong here, I don't own a Liberty Safe, don't want one, and think that they rolled over so easy you'd get more complaints from a well trained dog. That said, they're not a 2A company. They build safes. They're opportunists. Definitely don't give them your money but also don't feel betrayed in some way. They were never your friends, just people looking to make a buck. |

F them. They make safes for Cabels, NRA and Freedom Security. Liberty Brands |

And people on "our" side will say it's wrong to oppose them, because "even if we don't agree with them, we should fight to the death for their right to do it." Of course, no conservative company would use THEIR power or influence to push an agenda, because "that just wouldn't be right. People should be free to make their own decisions without us trying to change their minds." We're conducting a virtuous and principled march right to our own doom. |

They're invested in just about every industry you can think of and will take a bath on Liberty Safe as the 2A community bails. Like any corporate entity, they feed money to the politicians that fill their pockets. Cabelas is owned by Bass Pro, BPL LLC, where John L. Morris is the founder, majority owner, and CEO. I couldn't find anything that indicates any affiliation with Monomy. Remington brand was bought by Vista Outdoors in 2021. They also have no affiliation with Monomy. I'm no fan of Cabelas but do appreciate a good Remington. It's not good to associate solid 2A companies brands with crap like this. If you have a solid source linking them to Monomy, please share it. |

| I am guilty. I given money to two politicians that turned out to be RINO's. What Liberty Safe's holding did was just wrong and they need to fold. Unfortunately a majority of gun owners have no idea this event even happened. A lot of those who did held no issue with how it was handled by giving the info to the feds. |
| I bought my Liberty Lincoln 25 about 5 years ago at a great price shipped to sunny Hawaii. The gun safe vendor was awesome and I got the RSC in perfect condition. I'm a bit disappointed in their politics, but I'm a happy customer and I have a product that fits my needs. |

What would you expect from an East Coast Liberal firm? |
