For the production of the M1903 the U.S. Governement had to pay royalties to the Mauser-Werke ! 
because it was stolen!
payment stops with the outbreak of WW 1, act like a thief's again.
no, its not forgotten
That's only the tip of the iceberg mate ,think of all the royalties they would have to pay for aspirin and the 1001 other products and idea's they stole / looted after WW1 and WW2. Not many people know Fanta was an original German product and name ,I don't think Coca cola paid any royalties for that one either. Most of these things went to a country that aggressively tries to enforce intellectual property rights on the rest of the world , ironic isn't it.
