If they succeed imagine Mossberg going after everyone who sawed off the barrels.

No joke. I honestly hope they go out of business. I feel bad for the employees though

I seem to remember hearing that their legal team took that action on their own without consulting with management and there was an in house smack down against the legal team shortly thereafter, followed by several apology calls CEO to CEO...

I think you're right

I find that to be incredible... can they even do that?
That reminds me of being back in the UK and managing a Recovery ( Wrecker ) Company. We once transported a Rolls Royce and they gave us STRICT instructions that at no point must it be seen on a Recovery truck ! and also there was once a guy who built a car with a Rolls Royce Merlin engine ( was in WW2 Spitfire etc ) and used the grille from a Rolls. They saw the picture and sued him for defamation... ! What is the world coming to lol.

I'm not sure that it would stop me buying a smith and wesson, but it surely is ridiculous.

The Only issue that I have with Glock is that when you shake them, they sound like they are all falling apart inside ( I know what the sound is... ) and the finish on the slide personally I think is just below standard compared to anything else in that price point. Will that make a difference if I have to use it in anger; - No, of course not, but I do like to ' like ' what I buy. ..[/quote]

You know I'd like to think that there is absolutely no way it would hold up in court
