Official Deadlywind hAir trigger update

[Lohman446]

Is the theory of the patent that hard to understand? I realize there are intricacies in the system that are that complex, but how do this many people fail to grasp the base concept of intellectual property?

[Splat]

I understand haveing a good idea and wanting to protect said idea. But do you really thing that ptp was the FIRST company to think of this kind of trigger?

From what I know of Colin and the guys at Deadlywind, i hold in good faith that they didn't see something and say to themselves "how can we steal this idea to make profit."

Deadlywind made a sic trigger frame mod that would definatly bring mag owners back into the top echelon of tourney paintball. And now they can't go on with their creation due to a previous patent that has just enough similarities to verify a problem.

That's the base concept of the patent system is it not? To protect the patent holder and thus encourage innovation and bringing those innovations to market through that protection.

And you know this for certain HOW?

[rabidchihauhau]

you know, its just possible for several people to be working on the same idea at about the same time....

NAH. Never happens...

[mobsterboy]

it would have certainly revolutionized the mag industry, but not to the point of raising it from the dead. now logics frame, if made cheaper, and marketed better, that could do some serious damage, but no one cares about mechs in tourney scenes anymore. At least nobody that wins. Own up to the fact that mags had their day and crying about a pneusframe wont help anything but the loyal magfans

[Splat]

the "Loyal megafans" are what keep companies rolling.

and if Airgun Designs doesn't come out with something new to compete with then the only mag owners will be the "loyal megafans."

He said it, which means it is truth.
