Red Panda Update from Karma Airguns
- Thread starter DonnyFL
- Start date
Guess the other guys got their way, glad to see Karma keep pushing forward though. Hopefully this doesn't change the timeline for the SLS and EQ.

I placed an order for a customer from Krale in the Netherlands months ago. Does this mean they will no longer receive their order? or if they did that they can't sell the airguns they receive?

PJ is performing internal QC on SLS rifles in .22 and 25 right now. They will be ready to ship soon. The EQ is not far behind.

We are working with all dealers (in the US and elsewhere) to make sure that as soon as parts are available the customer orders can be fulfilled.

Can't really blame FX. RP took a lot of FX factory shooters. They are direct competition. It makes sense to make things hard for them. I would absolutely do the exact same thing. Feelings are not important in business.
To be fair... I think RP could continue to make the over the barrel plenum, they would just have to pay a 'royalty' to FX for every gun sold. They could just raise the price to cover the royalties.
Then again... I could be completely wrong.

I am not litigious, but I'm going to sue the poop outa you guys for using "Red Panda" and "Karma" in your names (on behalf of China and India).
Or, just pay me a small royalty and we can be partners.

How does a US patent effect a non US company?
Is there any US made gun that would have the plenum over barrel design?

Fx did not design the over the barrel first. Snowpeak has had that out for year. Look at the Barra 250z. It's nothing g more than a snowpeak m30b. They've had that gun out for almost 3 years. If anything fx copied a China company called snowpeak. They are the country's largest maker of air rifles. Their guns are accurate just not that powerful. I've owned 3 of them,sold them and got fx guns. That allowed me to shoot past 100 yards.

I do Not have a horse in this race but... Normally when lawyers get involved in Anything neither party can say much, if anything while said lawsuit is in litigation.
On a side note this does show just how Nasty FX can be, applying for a US patent after the fact to sue a company that they themselves were doing business with ... It was not long ago when FX and DonnyFL worked together with Donny supplying Moderators for some FX guns... Just sayin'

Gentlemen,
May I remind you that "A patent is a type of intellectual property that gives its owner the legal right to exclude others from making, using, or selling an invention for a limited period of time in exchange for publishing an enabling disclosure of the invention." Patents aren't just granted overnight or without explicit differentiation.
It appears FX has been granted a patent for an "over the barrel plenum", which I believe is unique and different to an over the barrel unregulated air reservoir.
Please ensure that your comments honor the decisions and/or changes made by both both parties.
Thank you
