I can confidently say this as I was with the business development director for Palco/Cybergun when all of this went down and heard first hand what the intent was.
Is Cybergun crossing a line? I don't believe so. When you have a license to use a specific product, you have the right, and even the obligation, to defend that license whenever and wherever it is needed.

exactly, when you pay for licencing to a certain products you have the right to protect your investment whether you do it in private through a fleet of lawyers or in public it is your right. If it were my business I would protect it to prevent someone else from profiting from my investment.
