DOUBLETAP™ DEFENSE, LLC FILES SIX MILLION DOLLAR LAWSUIT AGAINST HEIZER DEFENSE, LLC AND OTHERS

ST. LOUIS, MO (January 2013) - On January 3, 2013, DoubleTap™ Defense, LLC, owner of the DoubleTap™ Tactical Pocket Pistol filed a six million dollar lawsuit against Heizer Defense, LLC of St. Louis, Missouri, and others. In the lawsuit, DoubleTap™ Defense is seeking, in addition to monetary damages, an injunction to stop any further action on the part of Heizer Defense, LLC and others to manufacture or market a product based on the intellectual property of DoubleTap™ inventor Ray Kohout.

In the fall of 2012, DoubleTap™ Defense, LLC's relationship with the Heizers was terminated due, in part, to Heizer's inability to fulfill its manufacturing obligations. DoubleTap™ Defense, LLC has since engaged Azimuth Technologies, LLC, a Naples, Florida based company, to manufacture its new and improved DoubleTap™ Tactical Pocket Pistol. Production has begun on the smallest and safest conceal carry pistol on the market, with anticipated shipping to distributors to begin in the 1st quarter of 2013.

Obvoiusly their diferent guns, just look at the trigger guard!

[Stickman]

Interesting, and I wonder what their basis is for the suite. They obviously aren't claiming they invented the derringer...

[Optimus Prime]

I'm guessing Heizer is trying to manufacture the gun after putting the time and effort into it, despite DoubleTap pulling out due to them taking forever to produce it.

That looks like $50 I'd never get back if I spent it.
