From Shooting Weekly: SAF Wants to Know Why ATF Thinks Rare Breed’s Patent Litigation Is Any Of Its Business
Forced Rest Triggers (FRT) have been declared to be legal. The ATF hates that. The ATF told the court dealing with patent issues that they want to restrict FRT sales and development.
In a September 23 letter to Attorney General Todd Blanche, [The Second Amendment Foundation] asked DOJ to explain the factual and legal basis for ATF’s position, including why the agency claims an interest in limiting FRT distribution and why the federal government is inserting itself into private patent litigation in a way that could favor one marketplace participant over others.
Those questions matter because DOJ has already established the basic premise. ATF sees Rare Breed’s private patent litigation as useful to its own policy objectives. What SAF wants to know is why that should be ATF’s business in the first place.
