The son of a man killed in a 2021 mass shooting at an Indianapolis FedEx facility and two survivors have filed a federal lawsuit against the distributor of the 60-round magazine used by the gunman.

Instead, the lawsuit says the company specifically targeted its products to a"consumer base filled with impulsive young men who feel they need to harm others in order to prove their strength and who have militaristic delusions of fighting in a war or a video game." It points to action-movie-style marketing videos that were posted on American Tactical's YouTube page featuring men firing round after round in tactical vests — similar to one worn by the FedEx facility shooter.
The complaint also names as defendants the president of American Tactical, the company’s marketing director, as well as Schmeisser GmbH — the German manufacturer of the high-capacity magazine — and 365 Plus, the global distributor.
