When I first saw this thread, I thought it read, Bible versus US Army, LOL.

Almost as bad as seeing Where to buy Broken Sword in the other thread.

Need eyes checked........ can spot a hot chick from 100 miles away, but can't read worth shit.

if i'm in a war and people are trying to kill me, i wouldn't give a sh*t what is written on the scope as long as it worked!

this makes complete sense..
This company can do whatever they want. They could put outlines of daffy duck if they wanted too..

The question is.. WHY DID THE MILITARY BUY FROM THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE?

The company can make whatever they want.. granted, i think the news lady had a point about the whole putting their solders lives at risk by using this to recruit more people... but, that doesn't change the fact the company is entitled to do what they want.

I just wish the US/CAD/other allies can pull out soon. My friends brother was KIA.. and it's really sad to see someone so young die in a place he shouldn't have been in the first place..
I hate the fact that our brothers/sisters are dying in what i think is in vain =/

Hondaracer 01-20-2010 04:03 PM

^ they bought from them because this company makes some of the best scopes in the world

to get the same scope mounted on most military M4's a civilian pays like $1350

my dad just bought a chinese replica for like $300 for his, it's pretty nice regardless but the top of the line ones are insane

You're not alone..I too thought the same thing, except for the Broken Sword thread part.

Amen to that.

OT, but wasn't there a movie about a sniper in which, when he killed, he started mumbling verses from the bible or something rather?

WHO THE FUCK CARES. IT HAS NO EFFECT ON THE FUNCTIONALITY OF THE WEAPON SYSTEM WHATSOEVER.

2damaxmr2 01-20-2010 09:33 PM

i bet 99% of you guys never even touched a REAL gun in your life. btw this is a slap in the face for most Christians. I always liked Trijicon stuff, now i will buy more of them to support the company.

i believe its the dude in saving private ryan

hotong 01-20-2010 10:14 PM

w0w this is stupid.

tibjunkie 01-20-2010 10:18 PM

Trijicon can do as they wish, and i say more power to them for not just backing out of this idea ... and if the US wants significantly worse scopes of that type for their soldiers to use just to keep people here happy then so be it ... i dont really see the issue here

Never underestimate the power of jesus


==========================

2damaxmr2 01-20-2010 10:21 PM

that was pretty funny... you should quote that.. lol :haha:

Anyways I think some of you guys are missing the main point here... Of course the weapon is going to do what it was designed to do. It`s a machine.. a piece of technology... but what those inscriptions represent is an age old hate... Yes I hate fox news.. But I can understand where this reporter is coming from.

M U G A T U 01-24-2010 11:06 PM

Trijicon is not to be blamed in this matter, IMO. It's the US armys fault for not reviewing the design properly, I'm sure Trijicon sent out design options and descriptions for approval. They should blame the one responsible for reviewing and approving the design of the product.

And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you.

Well for one thing, MSNBC is the equivalent of FOX, for the left.

You know, I'm not one to side with stylinred ... ever..mainly because hes one of those "must defend islams at all costs, whether right or wrong" type of guys.. but God, I didn't expect you to be saying stupid shit of all people.

weeeee, I can use the fail button for no good reason as well!

So let me get this straight, they have a huge issue with scripture on a rifle scope that they chose to buy, but have no issues with the dollar bill?
And again... I suggest you take a step back and think about what you're saying. FFS. Can I get a facepalm plztx

.........
.....

Uh look... its not about the functionality ... its the messege it sends to the people they're fighting with and against.

Now the fagtards who wear bombs in their durkas can say "see, Mr.Moderate Iraqi who sided with the americans, they're trying to convert you" and thus having more douchebags blow them selves up, killing more of our troops ..

"who cares" The damn people using these weapons do. Try explaining to people you're not trying to convert them when you're handing them guns with bible verses on them.

Did I REALLY need to explain this? COME ON!!!
