Liberty Ammunition, the innovators behind ultra-high-velocity, low-recoil rounds like their .357 Magnum +P that clocks in at over 1,800 fps from a snub-nose revolver, just landed a blockbuster contract with Brink’s U.S. for executive protection services. That’s right—the same Brink’s that’s been safeguarding gold shipments and high-value assets since 1859, fending off outlaws from the Wild West to modern-day heists, is now trusting Liberty’s cutting-edge ammo to protect its top brass. CEO Gary Ramey couldn’t hide his enthusiasm, proudly stating the company’s honor in arming the world’s oldest security firm with technology that delivers devastating terminal performance in a compact package. This isn’t just a pat on the back for a boutique ammo maker; it’s a seismic vote of confidence from one of the planet’s most battle-tested security outfits.
Dig deeper, and this move screams validation for advanced 2A tech in real-world, high-stakes applications. Brink’s isn’t some hobbyist range; they’re the gold standard (pun intended) for armed professionals who can’t afford jams, underpenetration, or missed shots when lives and fortunes hang in the balance. Liberty’s ammo—engineered with lightweight cores that expand violently on impact while minimizing overpenetration—perfectly aligns with the defensive needs of executive carriers who prioritize stopping power without collateral risk. For the 2A community, it’s a reminder that innovation thrives when big players like Brink’s bypass Big Ammo giants (think Federal or Winchester) for boutique disruptors. This could spark a ripple effect: more contracts for performance-driven rounds, pressuring legacy manufacturers to up their game or get left in the dust.
The implications? Pro-2A advocates should cheer this as exhibit A in the case for unregulated innovation. In a landscape where anti-gun politicians push ammo taxes and capacity bans, Liberty’s selection underscores how private-sector excellence arms the good guys—security pros, concealed carriers, and everyday defenders—without government meddling. Expect this to fuel demand for Liberty’s civilian lines, proving once again that the best protection comes from freedom-forged tech, not bureaucratic red tape. If you’re stocking up for personal defense, take note: when Brink’s bets on it, it’s worth your consideration too.
