Inspiration and copyright infringement are two entirely different things.
Remington could sue Nexon, because they use remington products in the Combat Arms game without a license to do so.

FN H. Makes the Scar-L, P90, FS\F200.
Sig Sauer produces the P226 series, the SG55X series.
Springfield armaments produces the, M21, M14, M1 Garand and a few other weapons.
The few guns that can't infringe on copyright are simply the ones with a broadened name such as:
"M4A1" which describes a variant of AR15. Which might infringe on Armalites copyright, not sure if Armalite let the AR15\AR10 become public domain though.
See what im saying?
