Secret's Out: Trijicon Inscribes Bible Verses on Scopes

What utter B.S.! If an American is captured in Iraq or Afghanistan wearing BVD's and sunglasses he will be treated the same way he would be treated if he is carrying fifty bibles and a Remington 870. This is a war, they are out to kill us regardless of what we carry or why! This is a Bible verse on a scope for crying out loud. DUH! Do you think the rifle it is on might give it away that we are not there to collect for the Red Crescent? Do you really think Daniel Pearl had bible verses hidden on his person? He had his head cut off to make a point. Since then several others have suffered the same fate. The bible verse on the scope doesn’t change a thing; the bad guys are out to kill us. They have had the same idea for centuries; it is the nature of Islam. Convert or die. I, for one, will not be converting nor will I support this “Politically Correct” idea of taking the bible verses off the scopes. In fact, I support bullets made out of ham bones…

Wrong place - wrong application. It could cause problems in the field for soldiers and marines in Iraq and Afghanistan - because if they and their weapons are captured, it could be viewed at anti-muslim or some form of Jihad. Why endanger our warriors further? The company should proselytize at church or in their hometown. Not all American soldiers are Christian so this company is infringing on their rights. By the way I am Christian and volunteer at my church.

This is just way COOL. I know what I'm buying next.

I was on the wall about swapping out my Aimpoint M3 for an Acog on my m4 becuase of thier inherant high cost. After reading this artical I will without question be buying an Acog. Trijicon just made a life long customer.

It is a private company - they can inscribe what ever they want on their product. If the customer buying it does not check the merchandise it is their own fault. If a customer does inspect it and does not want the product because it has a bible verse or anything else inscribed on it....buy something else.

i have no personal issue with the bible verse. However, there are only two people responsible here...1st the Contracting Officer who signed the contract and the Official who accepted/inspected the end product for whomever was making the purchase. As a senior contract officer for fed. for 28 yrs. it all falls on the Contract officer...to specify, to approve, to authorize, check acceptance, and authorize payment. Hope those bible verses were FREE. CLGarris I'm ot preaching, just stating the facts. (staunch Catholic - Life-long Democrat - Ex Marine Res.)

This is just another example of PC run amok. Trijion has been doing this since its inception. Bottom line is that this is a private company and, while we are still the USA and not the USSA ("United" Socialist States of America), we need to remember that both this country and its laws are based on Judeo-Christian principles. "But I don't believe that..." you say. 2+2 still equals 4 no matter how much you "believe" it is 5. Moreover, our very authority as cops is God-ordained in Romans 13:1-7. "You can't say that," you say. 1st Amendment, at least for now, says I can (and the truth is still the truth, regardless of how others may rail against it)!
