Is H&K run by the real world version of Bizarro? Because they do everything ass-backwards

The weird part is they are suing the distributors who just sell the airsoft guns. I have not seen any of the brand names that makes the airsoft guns. The distributors have nothing to do with how the Airsoft are made. They just import the airsoft from Japan and sell them in America

This is a real dick move on their part. There are quite a few gun manufacturers (Armalite, SIG, Walther, etc.) that actually sell officially licensed airsoft versions of their products on their official web sites.

But anyway, if they're only suing distributors (and many airsoft retailers that sell to Americans aren't actually based in the U.S.), it won't make a difference. The only thing they're going to is alienate 90% of their fans.

Nope. The replicas Armalite sells (or used to sell) were of their AR-15-type rifles only. I'm pretty sure they were by some other manufacturer, except with licensed Armalite trademarks.

Also, puh-leeze don't tell me you're one of those moron Plastic Paddy IRA sympathizers.
