Liberty Safe gives passcode to federal authorities

[Gmac]

Here is some additional Info

Liberty Safe does damage control, but is it enough?

Liberty Safe will allow customers to opt out of the company keeping access codes to their safes on file, but will that alleviate concerns.

If they had a warrant, they were gonna break into it anyway.
I don't see the big deal.
They broke into Trump's safe at Mar A Lago.
I'm sure Trump's people wouldda given them the combination.
They broke in, just 'cause they could.

I'm not opening my safe for anybody . You got a warrant ? Fine . You find it , you open it .

 

[V.Taltos]

Do we know if Liberty did this under subpoena? Or was it under a request for assistance from one of the federal LEAs involved?

Screw Liberty safes! If I ran that company I'd certainly regret the mysterious fire that destroyed all the safe codes..

The larger problem with this is warrants have to be specific in searching ones home, they can not just have a general search for anything anywhere when there is only an arrest warrant for the individual.
In this case which is ******** from bottom to top, the supposed crime was being at a protest states away from the persons residence to which would only be an arrest warrant for the individual person nothing pertaining to his / her residence or property owned within.

This is the dangerous part no one is speaking about, Not to mention misconduct and illegal.
Having the way this lunatic run tyrannical run country operates today there may have been many charges we do not know about including ''Armed Insurrection'' which may have or not been pertaining to the search warrant of the individuals home and safe.
Still all too much ******** and We the people are more worse off the more this crap continues
Our entire system from top to bottom is just proving they can do whatever they want including shitting on our constitution / bill of rights and the Sheep will go along with it no matter what

I won’t activate the fingerprint or facial recognition keys to my phone precisely for this reason.

Android has a lockdown mode that takes about 1 second to apply, this requires the password/pin to unlock the phone, and disables the fingerprint and facial recognition. That said, I can guarantee the feds, and probably most larger police departments, have the tools to bypass security for a phone they have in hand.

My tiktok link didn't work, but the guy made a post on TikTok about the raid...just a short one, he's out of jail and thanks everyone for their support.

I may have been wrong about them selling out to a Chinese owned company, still not sure about that part but...

You wouldn't happen to be trying to justify owning a Liberty, would you?
On the off chance that you are, I have read that Liberty is now offering the removal of master codes for their safes by request, although I'm not sure I'd trust this if I were concerned about it.
That said, too little, too late for them to save face now. The damage is done and personally, I'm glad that it was made public. Good riddance.

it's probably worse than Chinese. Now you have a *Leftist political* company with a HUGE list of gun owners...if they registered their safes.

 

[machinedrummer]

Just how many master codes are there? If it's just one then....can't put the poop back in the goose.

I do own a liberty safe. I wonder if I could develop, and sell, a replacement board for the electronic safe that wouldn't have "backup" codes.

that might be worth pondering

Yes, I changed the electronic lock on my Tractor Supply Winchester to a Mechanical. Not every lock works with every safe though

Which mechanical lock match up with that safe, if you don’t mind? One of mine is that same safe.

Makes me appreciate my rotary relic even more.

Sargent & Greenleaf 6730. I ordered through Amazon

You could change the lock (not just the keypad)

 

[gunnut]

I was never a fan of electronic locks especially at a gun safe's 'residential container rating' price point.

S&G combo lock on mine from day one, 31 years ago. Course mine is no ordinary gun safe, fridge size, 3/8" hard plate all around. It nearly killed me moving it in Dec 1996. Twice more since but I got a wee bit smarter about it.
