I wouldn't be surprised someone submitted this to them and didn't bother to tell them it's copyrighted

But the AR15.com store doesn't have these, does it?

Yup. That's an Arfcommer.

hmm, anyone message cafepress about the violation as well?

You'd think they'd know better than to do that.

I mean "FUAROCK" shirts are one thing (I've seen some there) but to actually lift a trademarked logo is something completely different.

Seems like GB is slacking.

Not sure what kind of retail site this is.

Don't worry, cafe press will be contacted and it will be removed by cafe press as they don't want any trouble.  I had one on my store from when they were not copyrighted yet and then ARF copyrighted it.  I had forgotten about it and then a few years ago I got a note it was taken down and why with a copy of the cease and desist.

It is CafePress. All those are just graphics. They own warehouses full of product, but none of it is printed on. When you order something they screen it and ship it.

Wasn't there an incentive for reporting violations? I thought at one time it was a 1 year membership. Either way, that's a complete rip-off of the BFL. Does ARFCOM usually get compensated by the company in violation? Or, just a ceast and desist?

...Is it hard to check a logo for ownership?  

I didn't think it was but this *seems* to happen alot...

I actually saw this on Craig's list the other day. The mods should look into this also. http://tampa.craigslist.org/hil/spo/3941959944.html http://www.redbubble.com/people/mssleboeuf/works/9570313-ar  
After further inspection it does look a little different, not by much though.

It doesn't have to be an exact logo ripoff. Just close enough to potentially cause confusion in the marketplace.

It would be trademark infringement, and it is close enough to say something about it.
