German Company Shamelessly Copies RRB Systems International's Rapid Rotation Baton

| An RRB look alike, put out by Lipke Waffenhandel.
| German Company "Lipke Waffenhandel" has taken to copying the RRB Systems International 'Rapid Rotation Baton' and 'RRB Security Holster' for sale to the German Market. The 1-to-1 copy is yet another "knock-off" in a long line of German products which look surprisingly like United States Patented Technology. In the past, various Safariland holsters, including the latest SLS (self-locking-system), and Uncle Mike's Security Holsters have also been copied by German Manufacturers who have struggled to achieve excellence in their own designs.
As many countries begin to see the benefits of the new RRB design, we expect that their are teems of uncsrupulous manufacturers sitting poised to launch competitive products. And though we expect healthy competiton in the marketplace, we are both flattered and dismayed at the overt direct 1-to-1 copy of RRB Systems International's intellectual property and encourage all police agencies to consider the same when making purchasing decisions. We have deep respect for the German trade organizations which are charged with controlling fair trade rules and though there appears to be only a few particular German businessmen behind most of these product copies, we are compelled to point fingers at those who participate in unscrupulous business practices.
We encourage all buyers: "caveat emptor", when making purchasing decisions and to depend on original equipment and original training for all of your policing needs.
