I'm currently developing a video game set in the Old West and I'm wanting to know if I can use period gun brand names in my game: Colt, Winchester, etc. Do I need special permission from the companies themselves or what? I won't be using the companies' logos and the use of their brands would only appear in the the names of certain guns, e.g. Colt m1902, Winchester m1887.
