Lack of patents inhibit research, development and advancement slows to a crawl.
Don’t be a commie. The market will decide what it wants and what the value is. Not the goddamn patent office.
But without the protections of a patents, investments are risks of exactly this happening. Innovators invest capital to develop a new innovation, then after you spend all you have and finally go to market A slime ball like Preece steels the IP and makes a copy and undercuts your market and you are done financially. Sure the markets rule but without the patent protections why invest in anything new.
It allows you to create unique features on individual section that are impossible to do from a solid block of material. There are two ways to achieve this either machine and weld or do additive manufacturing (3D print).
Makes sense. I imagine then that the future of brakes is in additive manufacturing, like with cans. Pretty cool stuff.
Do you use Hornady products? What about Leofoto? Or Athlon? This isn't new ...
not new but a shit thing to do to another small company. China copying shit is one thing but a former dealer of the Chad and someone that’s very involved in the sport as a smith and competitor. Shit thing to do. Definitely won’t send anymore business his way.
I do not use any of those products. Yes I will admit I understand innovation but to steal like the above brands, I avoid them like the plague.
I've never had any luck buying them from anyone other than Strike Without Warning
Its not unique one bit, most welded suppressors are done this way.
