Some companies go as far to misrepresent Chinese safes as American. Others offer (or have offered) American built safes that use steel and components made in China, assembled here in the US by illegal Mexian labor.
Not to get off subject to much. But, I buy a lot of metals (20k lbs a year) its nearly imposable to get metals made in the USA. The tree huggers traded Bethlehem Steel for office buildings. Many grades of metals are only available from China. Most of our SS comes from Italy. Aluminum is the only thing that buy almost exclusively domestic.
Very few if any companies hire illegal labor. Its illegal and the department of labor does check up on it. If they are hired its because they have the proper documents.
The only Brownings I have seen (places like Bass Pro) are not US made.
The feel good of buying American is good enough for me. We have to start someplace, I wasn't trying to imply that only Liberty is US made. IMO they make a great product.
