This is hyperbole. You typically can't sue (and win) against the maker of an item used in a crime just because they manufactured it. There is usually some extenuating circumstance when these cases do prevail. For instance one manufacturer was found to have such incendiary marketing around their assault rifle it had risen to the level of a "call to arms". So typically it has to be more than "We are the manufacturer"

They have artistic license to advertise their product as they see fit. I don't see how that's a "call to arms" anymore than military movies are.
