GrabAGun IPO: A New Conservative Frontier

TODAY’S STORY

A group of conservative politicians and gun rights advocates, including Donald Trump Jr. and investor Blake Masters, are joining the board of GrabAGun, a digital firearms retailer set to go public this summer.

While GrabAGun offers an investment opportunity in a "viable business," with $99.5M in revenue over the past 12 months, its true significance lies in its role within the broader conservative movement.

The company’s IPO reflects conservative efforts to establish its own products, financial systems, and tech infrastructure as a counter to what they call corporate leftism.

For example, most payment vendors refuse to work with gun companies, prompting the emergence of specialized payment processors like Tactical Payments, which cater exclusively to this sector.

This movement underscores a growing push for independence from traditional financial and tech ecosystems. As such, GrabAGun’s IPO is not just a business venture but a statement of ideological and economic self-sufficiency.
