The Houston Astros began as the Colt 45s and Colt wanted to sue them so they changed the name to Astros.

So, Colt's attempt to install an "assault weapons" ban all by itself failed. Excellent!

Glad to see that the pro-gun, pro-civilian-firearms company got the benefit of the verdict.

I'm glad Bushmaster won. Colt's snotty attitude and bad management are what has hurt the company.

Besides, isn't "M-4" (or "M-anything") a D.O.D. term?

have enough to worry about from the 'enemy within & without'....

Our own kind squabble...and seek to undermine...

Colt's position was ridiculous. Bushy spent tons of money, time, and energy on this nonsense, and deserves compensation by Colt for the frivolity.

It is a travesty that Colt has become a mismanaged dinosaur. It would be nice to see some 2nd Amendment loving AMERICANS take over that venerable old company and make it great again. Until then, at least we'll have something to bitch about while standing at the gunstore counter.

I guess Hitler should sue everyone because he invented the term "Assault Rifle". Good thing he's dead.

I think M-anything comes from adoption by the military, yes. Just as with the M-1 carbine which was made by so many makers.
