Company profile

Christopher Cope appears to be an individual rather than a traditional corporate entity. Court filings indicate Christopher Cope, identified as being from Nevada, is the defendant in a patent infringement lawsuit. No public information is available regarding a formal company, headquarters, employee count, or revenue associated with this individual in a business context, beyond their role as a defendant in the specified litigation.

Christopher Cope is alleged to be involved with the sale or manufacture of after-market firearm trigger mechanisms. The products at the center of the litigation include the "Super Safety" and "Wide Open Trigger," which are described as infringing on patents related to forced reset trigger technology. This technology involves mechanical trigger systems for semi-automatic firearms designed to accelerate the rate of fire.

In terms of patent litigation, Christopher Cope is exclusively a defendant, with one tracked case. This posture suggests an operating individual or entity being challenged for alleged infringement, rather than a patent assertion entity. The single tracked case, ABC IP, LLC et al. v. Christopher Cope, was filed in the Eastern District of Texas, a venue frequently chosen for patent litigation.

The notable case, ABC IP, LLC et al. v. Christopher Cope, was filed on March 23, 2026, in the Eastern District of Texas. The plaintiffs, ABC IP, LLC and Rare Breed Triggers, Inc., allege that Cope's firearm trigger mechanisms infringe eight U.S. patents related to forced reset trigger technology. A cease and desist letter was reportedly sent to Cope on March 28, 2025, identifying several U.S. Patents and accusing the "(3-Position) 'Super Safety'" product of infringement, which is cited as a basis for alleging willful infringement.
