What gun do you want an FRT for?
I plan on designing and selling a bunch of FRTs for different guns, and currently already have two that are almost ready (1 super selector style safety, and 1 for a gun I won't mention yet) so I want to know what guns people want FRTs for the most and will try to make them

Fight it, at least if my lawyer thinks its winnable
The FRT was patented in 1934 so the Raregreed patent is void, atleast to any FRT that isnt identical to their's

It's probably winnable, but would cost a prohibitive amount to win. They've pretty effectively chilled the market, but more power to you.

It is a patent suit
>>63939828
I'm an IP attorney, I'll take a look. Rare Breed's suit against the makers and sellers of Hoffman style super safeties is invalid, but I'm saying that without having looked at the old patent that you referenced. It is bullshit either way.

Anon, IP lit is insanely expensive, just so you know. And I think that you should make a P90 SS because nobody else is.

These kinds of lawsuits take well over a year, i have time to build up savings for it
and i'm hoping that since it'd be a fairly big case that we are likely to win my lawyer will take a portion of the Winnings when we succeed rather than an upfront cost, my dad's lawyer did that when he decided to sue his old business partner
With those lawyer fees set aside it shouldn't be too prohibitive, especially since i'm defending myself rather than filing the suit

In that case it would be ideal to possibly get a patent lawyer on my side with the same goals of defeating Rarebreed
...perhaps you might be willing to help me for the sake of FRTs?
I would think maybe something like charging me for the money, but delaying it until the trial is over. Sorry, not entirely sure how these things work, and I'm in a tough spot.

Replying to my own post. Yeah, I'd say that the concept of the FRT is not patentable by Rare Greed and their '223 patent is probably invalid, but they do have some specific language in their patents for cassette style triggers that could potentially withstand scrutiny. Those are inferior to the Hoffman though.

To me its more about getting away with it legally after using it in a defense situation. Sure you might be cool for not complying and having unregistered guns but at the end of the day what use is it if you're not willing to use it for its' intended purpose of defending yourself?

They are only suing people for making AR SSs and I don't expect that to change desu. I would not overthink that aspect of all this, I just don't want people to misapprehend what it takes to deal with patents in court. Additionally, I should mention that a patent for a "micro entity" (you) is going to cost around $10000, which includes the filing fees. Not sure if you want to get anything patented but that's the current approximate cost.

Trouble is that's what I want to build the foundation of this shop on, and what will make the most money.
I've improved the Atrius super selector so it wont break like pot metal and I'll actually work with customers and ship shit out.
Of course I want my focus to be FRTs for other guns but there is a backlog of some 4,000 people on a waitlist for super selectors meaning I stand to gain atleast half a million from it if I do things right, which will go to designing FRTs for more guns

Assuming you can make one, ive read that it'd be complicated, the P90. I've read that the P90 and AUG (for which FRTs exist) have very similar triggers and so its only a matter of time for that. Semi auto is one of the only things holding me back from buying a PS90.

After some study, the PS90 would be very easy to convert. The trigger pack has an auto sear in it still that could probably be converted to function as an FRT. I believe some of the pins in the trigger pack are not possible to remove though without destroying the housing so you'd need to be smart about it.

You've got to get the Lee's sporting thing or print some housing out and use an AR FCG.
It's probably worth it to do either because an HK option doesn't exist, and ripping an mp5 full fun is a devine experience, but having a dedicated cassette pack for HK would be worlds better.

The PKM is top tier but you'd probably have to be in the receiver business at that point.

You know, the RPD is a really cool piece of shit. I think that the design is basically not really something that you can meaningfully modernize. I know that DSA tried but ultimately there is no good 7.62x39 SAW. I have given some thought to designing a belt fed AK conversion kit that uses RPD belts. The RPD is a push through design that ejects out of the bottom and I think that you could replace the AK dust cover with a cam and pawl top cover and replace the long stroke bolt carrier with a short stroke. A belt fed AK would be sick.
