[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 317028, member: 2736"] I am the holder of several patents and I can tell you it means almost nothing anymore !!! If an item is a really good one then someone just simply steals it and has it made in china by the millions and markets it . and if the heat gets to much they just discontinue the product after making millions. The only way a patent has any strength is against any American manufacture like a Winchester or a Remington and they would not be able to get away with doing spiral fluting with in the guide lines of the patent. But if they wanted to they could study the patent description and figure out away around it in most cases. The fact that a person has a patent does not mean that they though of it first just that they applied for it first and it was excepted. I had one patent stolen by a company that simply predated my design and submitted it and my application was denied. So I say lots of luck to Shaw. It will probably cost them money rather than make them money. Its like saying you can't file any notches in your pistol grips because I have the patent. If a barrel manufacture does not want to do it "No Problem" there are many good barrel makers and gunsmiths that will. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
