			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I would like to let you guys know that my experience in your store on Monday 19 Jan 2010 was exceptional. I was in the hunt for a pocket .380 and had my mind set on a Ruger LCP. I normally do my firearm shopping on the on-line auctions and decided to try and keep it local this time. I had taken the CCW class last year through your shop and was informed by Dutch that he was providing discounts for not only LEOs but for firefighters as well. So I decided to look at the inventory at your shop. The gentleman that helped me showed me the other .380 pistols that you all had in stock and I decided to buy the Taurus TCP. Initially, the gentleman behind the counter informed me that the discount was $5 off the ticket price and was actually disappointed. I guess Dutch just happened to call the shop and one of the other guys there had asked him about firefighter discounts. I was surprised to hear that there was a significant amount taken off the price even for us fireman. The discount will definitely keep me coming back for future purchases and I will now make Dutch&#8217;s Firearms my only stop for guns. I also want to express my thanks for the exceptional customer service that the guys behind the counter had displayed. If anything, that would&#8217;ve made me come back. Thanks again.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi,<br />
My name is Robert S<br />
I just wanted to thank Dutch&#8217;s Firearms for the very reasonably priced class. My wife, who has done very little shooting, was really excited about how well she did. She has not yet applied for her ccw because she hasn&#8217;t made up her mind about what she wants to carry. We are taking our time and shooting several different calibers &amp; types of pistols to see what she is most comfortable with.  I made my decision and chose a Glock 23 with a laser sight.</p>
<p>The main reason I am dropping you an email is to inform you that Lafayette County, where I live, only charges $32.00 for the fingerprinting &amp; background check. I am not sure if it is Dutch&#8217;s Firearms or XXXXXXXXXXX but you guys are on Lafayette County&#8217;s approved ccw instructors. It only took about 3 weeks for my background check to be completed and the non-driver ID was only $12.00. So the entire thing only cost me $94.00.  I just received my approval on the 11th.</p>
<p>I want to think you guys for your excellent help. I also wanted to inquire about the young man, I think his name was Steve, that helped Danny teach our class. He told us he was going back to Afganistan for another tour.  We would like to keep in touch with him while he is over there and maybe send him a care package and email. If it is possible, could you let us know how to get in touch with him?</p>
<p>Thanks,<br />
Robert  S</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you haven&#8217;t heard these will be collectors items soon. We still have some in stock! Swing in and get one while they last!  For more information on the lawsuit and outcome see the below information.</p>
<p>******************************************************************************************************************</p>
<p>September 25, 2009</p>
<p>To whom it may concern,</p>
<p>This is a letter to inform you of the present status regarding the lawsuit filed upon German Sport Guns and American Tactical Imports Inc. (ATI) by H&amp;K for alleged trade dress infringement for the GSG-5 series of firearms. Although this lawsuit is ongoing, ATI would like to update you with information about this lawsuit. This trade dress suit is very similar to the 2004 trade dress lawsuit imposed by Colt on Bushmaster and H&amp;K regarding the appearance of the M4/AR-15. The ultimate result of the Colt lawsuit stated that there is no trade dress rights associated with this design. The lawsuit was then dismissed.</p>
<p>German Sport Guns and ATI are both highly confidant that if this lawsuit goes to court, it will conclude with a similar result as the Colt lawsuit. It is clear to any gun enthusiast that the H&amp;K MP-5 is based on the design of the original G3, a design which is owned by the German government. It is also well known that the German government and several other nations gained permission to create the G3 and other variations based off of the original Spanish CETME assault rifle. These firearms are still available for sale in many countries around the world. This information is noted in detail in H&amp;K’s history book, “H&amp;K Heckler &amp; Koch” by Manfred Kersten and Walter Schmid, available through firearm and book retailers. German Sport Guns and ATI feel that this information available in the public domain greatly helps solidify our stance regarding the GSG-5.</p>
<p>The GSG-5 is currently sold to 55 different countries. If German Sport Guns and ATI do not win this lawsuit, these firearms as well as any H&amp;K MP-5 style firearm, air gun, air soft gun, or paintball gun, as well as any MP-5 style accessories not manufactured by H&amp;K, will no longer be able to be imported and sold in the United States. We are not currently the only victims of this type of trade dress lawsuit with H&amp;K. There are 24 other companies as defendants involved in this same type of action with H&amp;K. You can view their other dockets here: <a href="http://dockets.justia.com/search?q=HECKLER+%26+KOCH%2C+INC" target="_blank"><span style="color: #333300;">H&amp;K lawsuits against 24 companies</span></a>.</p>
<p>Although ATI is still currently importing the GSG-5 carbines and pistols, the available stock of these firearms may dwindle due to an increase in demand because of this lawsuit. German Sport Guns and ATI are aware that distributors and dealers may be concerned regarding the value of their GSG purchases. As history shows, regarding lawsuits of this nature, the value and demand may skyrocket. German Sport Guns and ATI will hold firm on the current pricing of the GSG-5 products. We will not be changing any of our standard policies no matter the outcome of the lawsuit. It is German Sport Guns and ATI’s highest priority to win this lawsuit so that we can continue to provide the GSG-5 to firearm enthusiasts all over the country. Regardless of the outcome, ATI will continue to provide the same outstanding quality of warranty and customer services to all GSG-5 owners from our service center in Rochester, NY.</p>
<p>German Sport Guns and American Tactical Imports remain diligent and dedicated in pursuing the legal justice we expect to see in the outcome of this lawsuit. As you have seen with the additions of the GSG-AK47 series and the upcoming GSG 1911 pistol, German Sport Guns and ATI will continue to add new models and features to the growing line up of German Sport Gun firearms. We appreciate your continued support of our businesses during this unfortunate situation.</p>
<p>Sincerely,</p>
<p>Anthony DiChario<br />
American Tactical Imports<br />
President C.E.O.</p>

<p>Re: Heckler and Koch, Inc. vs. German Sport Guns GmbH, American Tactical Imports,<br />
Inc. Civil Action No. 1 : 09-cv-00039-WTL-JMS (S.D. Indiana)</p>
<p>For immediate release,</p>
<p>We are very pleased to report that the litigation filed by Heckler &amp; Koch, Inc. against<br />
German Sport Guns GmbH and its U.S. distributor, American Tactical Imports, Inc.,<br />
together with all counterclaims, has been settled.</p>
<p>The terms of the settlement are confidential to the parties and cannot be disclosed. A<br />
dismissal of the above-referenced litigation, and all of the party’s claims against each<br />
other, is expected to be filed in the near future.</p>
<p>Attorneys for H&amp;K will be issuing a statement. The attorneys for ATI have already<br />
issued a statement announcing the settlement.</p>
<p>Production and importation of the original design GSG-5 ceased as of Oct, 8, 2009 with<br />
the signing of the agreement. The remaining inventory now in the USA can be sold by<br />
ATI, all distributors and dealers. ATI currently has GSG-5’s in stock.</p>
<p>All sales of the GSG-5 by ATI must conclude by January 31, 2010. ATI will continue to<br />
service every firearm that it imports into the USA.</p>
<p>Thank you for your support.</p>
<p>Anthony DiChario<br />
President C.E.O.<br />
American Tactical Imports, Inc.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>WoW! It seems like only yesterday we were at the ribbon cutting ceremony at the store. But can you believe it&#8217;s already been a year?</p>
<p>And it&#8217;s been a great year, thanks to all of you! We want to thank you for coming in and for trusting us with your business.</p>
<p>We would like to give something back. On October 24th, we will be having an Anniversary sale on all firearms. We will be giving away door prizes and will also have free food and drinks.  Please take a few moments to stop by and bring a friend or two.  We would love to save you some money on a new personal protection device or hunting rifle.</p>
<p>I also hear there might be a few military folks hanging around with some toys.</p>
<p>Once again, Thank you for a great year and here&#8217;s to many more!</p>
