Is "SOAR" even protectable?
You have a link? I only see handguard rails.
RRS has this
Hi,
Per the USPTO it is a registered Trademark 469 times......
Sincerely,
Theis
Are they legally being sold in the US? Having a Lawsuit with the company/distributor?
Patenting RRS product?
I do wonder how much this actually hurts sale though. The guys buying a knock off doesn't typically have the budget for a real one... he'd be buying a cheap tripod no matter what and the serious shoot knows that these are knock off and isn't their buying junk.
Did Hog Saddle not develop the rifle clamping device before anyone else?
He did. I talked to him about 5 years ago, told Josh how I thought it could be improved. how Id like to do it if he didn't. He didn't so we went forward and didn't break any laws or rules.
edit: I am not upset with anyone making tripods, or ballheads, or the rails. . I am talking, trying to exactly imitate the product for the sake of taking money away from that product.
you mean SPUHR?Yes, they just don't like it when somebody is better at copying than they are.
They are no strangers to copying someone else's stuff, they're just mad it happened to them.
Maybe you can explain the inspiration for your leveling wedge kit. Strange how similar it is to the Arisaka one:

i'd hardly call a VYCE a copy of a hog waddle though
Pretty sure Spuhr did it first....
so then Remington should sure every custom action company who took a basic design and changes a shitload of stuff to make it better?Sure then, Spuhr.
Does it make it any less of a copy?
so then Remington should sure every custom action company who took a basic design and changes a shitload of stuff to make it better?
and by that token back to the early 1800's when the first bolt action was made
im talking about the vyce and hog saddle not a wedgeGonna need you to explain how the RRS Wedge is somehow better than the Spuhr or Arisaka wedges.
They literally took the same design and lasered their logo on it.
The same as LeoFoto did.

Maglula is made in Israel so it is not just US made products being copied.I have no idea about that. Is Maglula American made? One problem is American companies that go to China for manufacturing which opens another avenue for unauthorized copies..... Regardless, Amazon sucks, they are the largest marketplace for counterfeit goods. We have been fighting counterfeits for 5-6 years and today if anyone posts up a counterfeit that is marked with our trademark "Atlas" we submit it and it is removed. We are the manufacturers not a consumer. HOWEVER that seller takes another picture of the back, not engraved side and posts it back up and Amazon does nothing. Amazon sucks they get zero of my dollars.
The problem is... neither China nor Amazon nor eBay give a fuck.
As you say, it's a very important distinction between the two.
Before I could care less if people were spending their dollars on Leofoto. Now that they are blatantly copying another brand, I can't support that in any capacity.
Maglula is made in Israel so it is not just US made products being copied.
Ahhh, ok. Yes I know counterfeiting is a global problem. One issue is companies that use chinese manufacturing to produce their products, say Nike for example, so all the Nike technology is there. Then these same manufacturers or associated manufacturers produce "gray" or "unauthorized" copies of the Nike product. I thought "Magula" was US product and why I asked if it was US manufactured. I have little sympathy for any company that exports manufacturing to china and then has chinese counterfeits to contend with.
I don’t think that anyone said that.so i guess i'm a little confused, are u saying Hog saddle and the pig field tripod are copies?
I keep seeing tripods mentioned in this thread and I'm wondering if RRS holds a design patents for a tripod?

Is there a patent for a "tripod"?
I keep seeing tripods mentioned in this thread and I'm wondering if RRS holds a design patents for a tripod?
I completely see and agree with the ball head infringements and labeling w/ SOAR but why is everyone bagging on the tripods?
thats cause people take the horus and made it betterI'm NOT saying to purchase Leofoto tripods. I'm asking if RRS holds any specific tripod patents that are also being copied by Leofoto or any other tripod manufacturer. The examples shown in the OP are clearly copies, at least to the naked eye.
I would suggest looking to Horus Vision as they seem to be able to keep a tight leash on their intellectual property as I'm not seeing any copies of those anywhere. At least I haven't seen any.

Buy.
American.
Good luck finding a scope that's 100% American madeThis is why I don’t own any Vortex stuff.
-Watched a show about this on Netflix called Broken.
It talked about the immense task of enforcing customs and stopping Chinese counterfeit goods. Although it was about cosmetics it transcends all industries of consumer goods.
NOTHING will change unless manufacturers can get a class action lawsuit aimed at Amazon, Ebay, or any of these sites that facilitate the easy sale of counterfeit goods.

Enforcement need not not apply if your own government employees inside Beltway sucks the Ballsack of Amazon, Ebay, Nike, GM, Walmart...etc. and impeach the POTUS who rocks the boat and slows business as usual .

how many years in your life have you seen this writing on a label ?, It's a western institution and never going away . A fat wallet kicks the shit out of conscience and consequences .
