The lawsuit names Glock and two ammunition-makers, Federal Cartridge Company and Alliant Technosystems, also known as ATK.

Why is he suing two cartridge companies? Does he not know what ammo was in the gun?

Maybe one cartridge company is the parent company of the other. That's the only shoe that fits.

It is not a normally publicly known fact about which powder is in factory ammo, but there is a powder manufacturer named Alliant, I believe.

ATK owns Federal. They also own CCI and a quite a few other companies. Do a Google search.

Federal, Speer, and CCI are all owned by ATK.

Just another case of poor reporting.

It's like people sueing aircraft companies. They sue every manufacturer of every part that's on the aircraft.

(Answer:)Why, for the money, of course. Even though the ammo did not fail. It worked.
