If I am not mistaken (which is rare mind you) I believe that HK was named in that lawsuit as well as Bushmaster. If this is the case, then I could see HK removing all such items from their website until their marketing department could find a satisfactory substitute for M4.
As far as my views on the whole deal, this statement pretty much sums it up,"This is purely a matter of symantics, up with which we will not put."
I am waiting to see if HK releases their upper for sale to the unwashed heathen masses (or at least their LE dealers) as nearly everything I have heard about the system is complimentary.
