This thread is in extreme danger of going way off course.
Guys, care to redirect your direction to the possibility that this potentially cuts the market off from even "SCAR-
like" rifles ? Has anyone checked to see if FN actually has a design patent on the shape and overall visual aesthetics of the SCAR?
That's what's at issue here. I respectfully encourage any folks who want to debate Apple's design patents or SCO vs IBM on the off-topic forum, or on Reddit / HN / Groklaw / etc
We're primarily interested in airsoft here.
