Mossberg suing Drop in Trigger Manufacturers

Over at The Firearm Blog, we find this;

In another instance of the firearms industry feeding on it’s own, it appears that Mossberg is exercising it’s control on the original Chip McCormick patent (US 7,293,385 B2), that it acquired a while ago, and bringing lawsuits against a number of manufacturers of drop in triggers.

Mossberg currently licenses the design to the new CMC company, who has apparently decided to get Mossberg to go after their competition, i.e. anyone making drop in triggers.

A list of some of the companies that are currently named in the lawsuit(s) are:

Black Rain (whose excellent lightweight 3-Gun rifle I just reviewed)
DOA Arms
Tactical Fire Control
Battle Tested Equipment
Patriot Ordnance Factory
RISE Armaments (whose triggers I swear by)
T Vehr Manufacturing
Elftmann Gun Products


Why do I think there is going to be a Federal Case about this very shortly?
