Hellcat controversy Hickok45?

O'brother... What the hell?? Well, The end of that looks like they (jumped the gun) perhaps?
Springfield Armory quickly reacted once the actions of the IFMA were revealed to the company, with the company releasing the following statement from Reese: "I can tell you now, we at Springfield Armory are unequivocally 100 percent against this bill and will continue to work with the NRA and others to ensure that it is defeated. Springfield Armory ... was not aware of the actions taken by trade association, IFMA, until after the fact.
 
One wonders if a law exempting two manufacturer's products from an in state transfer ban law would even survive court challenges. Smacks of antitrust and or general discrimination of other companies. IDK???

Springfield Responds to SIG SAUER's Magazine Patent Lawsuit -

TFB recently reported that SIG has filed a lawsuit against Springfield over patent conflicts between the P365 and Hellcat mags. Springfield has fired back.

As TFB recently reported, on May 11th, 2021, SIG SAUER filed a lawsuit against Springfield Armory. This lawsuit alleges that Springfield infringed upon SIG’s intellectual property in the form of patents on their pistol magazines, specific to the P365 and Hellcat model mags.

Pretty sure California AB1228 exempted bakeries SPECIFICALLY to pander to Panera. . . . which questionably "bakes" in their restaurants. One wonders if Wendy added a mini bread oven if they could be considered a bakery.

I recall there was another exemption for a specific corporation. It might have been Starbonks. I forget. (AB1228 is the fast-food-minimum-wage law. It's crazy. McD's all over the poorer sections of CA will close - disenfranchising (giggle) the poorest people - the ones this bill ALLEGED to help.)
