| ...the Kwa dont even have trades, KSC does though.
So you say theyre they just going after it because of the name used? Tough that doesnt explain why theyre stopping the M9 series as well. _________________ Three shots doesn't a widow make. Head Moderator |

| ^Because Beretta is doing the same thing as Glock.
A lot of the real gun companies are really starting going after these companies based on "Trade Dress" for the first time, instead of the normal trademark infringements.
It could cause a lot of problems, or it could be all talk. Only time will tell. |

| lol, youd think the first company theyd go after would be TM seeing as they use trades as well.
Though im guessing theyre only going after US based distributor type companies (not sure what KWA is). _________________ Three shots doesn't a widow make. Head Moderator |

| That would require pursuing copyright law enforcement in another country.
KWA is an easy target as they have a large part of their company based in the US. |

| | Geeze the M9 series and the 1911 too?? Well this sucks because KWA pistols are some of the best gbb's on the market. I dont know where I'd be without my G19. I guess it gives me the excuse to buy the 18 I never did. So H&K has nothing in this as to let the USP production continue? |
