OTTOFIREARMS LLC

Based on available public information, OTTOFIREARMS LLC appears to be a privately held operating company involved in the firearms industry. Details such as its headquarters, year of founding, and employee count could not be definitively verified through public records. An entity named "OTTO FIREARMS LLC" was registered in Florida in 2012 but was administratively dissolved in 2014. Its connection to the entity in the litigation is unconfirmed.

The company is believed to be a seller or distributor of firearms, parts, and accessories. This characterization is based on its position as a co-defendant in a patent infringement lawsuit concerning a specific firearm component. The case involves the sale of the "Wide Open Trigger" (WOT), a type of "forced-reset trigger" for AR-15 style rifles.

OTTOFIREARMS LLC's patent litigation posture is that of an operating company defending its business practices. The company has been named as a defendant in one tracked patent case and has not appeared as a plaintiff. This pattern is typical for a retailer or distributor accused of selling an allegedly infringing product manufactured by another company. The single tracked case was filed in the Ohio Northern District Court.

The company's only tracked litigation is RARE BREED TRIGGERS, LLC et al. v. WIDE OPEN ENTERPRISES LLC et al. In this case, the plaintiff, Rare Breed Triggers, alleged that the "Wide Open Trigger" sold by the defendants infringes on its patent for the FRT-15 trigger. OTTOFIREARMS LLC is named as a defendant alongside the trigger's manufacturer, Wide Open Enterprises. The technology at the center of this dispute, forced-reset triggers, has also been the subject of regulatory scrutiny by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).
