So I just got an interesting report from a buddy who works at TRACTOR SUPPLY. They carry the Winchester line of safes. His particular store took in a returned Winchester safe. (The return had nothing to do with the function or quality apparently.) But the owners had programed their own combination,...and forgotten to provide it to Tractor Supply when they returned it. So Tractor Supply contacted Winchester to see if they had a solution.

Indeed they did.

Winchester supplied a MASTER combination number that Tractor Supply was able to use to open the safe and reset the combination!

I don't condemn Tractor Supply in any of this. But Winchester,....

While I do not have any info suggesting Winchester has ever supplied such information to the feds,...it certainly is there for them to supply if ever requested by authorities, whether officially or not.

Luckily a S&G dial lock is only around $100 and well within the capability of the average gun owner to swap out.

Seems they don't understand the word "liberty."

Or, were made an offer they could not refuse?
