I, personally, do not plan on ever purchasing another Trijicon product.  This incident has caused me to lose all respect for the company, because they CAVED.  I was very proud of the companies public stance and am now even more disappointed in their lack of testicular fortitude in resisting the pressure to bow to political correctness.  I am a Christian, and in my opinion, if you are willing to submit and remove evidence of your faith in God from your product because someone doesn't like it, well, I have to wonder what other areas your willing to make concessions in.  Just my opinion, which probably isn't worth two cents.

We just don't know the whole story behind their apparent cave-in.  While I think it was way cool to have the Biblical reference on their scopes, if a pack of athiests in the govt. purchasing office decided it was inappropriate and would lead to a cancellation of their contract...  well, then it was smart to take it off.  After all, being in business and employing lots of people while making one of the best gunsights on the market sure beats closing down the factory and sending people to the unemployment office.  Still, I'd sure like to have one with the reference emblazoned thereon...  I'm just sayin'

My viewpoint may not be shared by many, but I believe, and have experienced, that God takes care of his own.  If Trijicon didn't collapse and back away from their religious message, they would have reaped greater rewards for it.  Just my opinion.

The problem came with the military code against proselytization.  The issue in my mind is that it is not actually a printed verse.  It is a reference that if you don't understand your Bible you aren't going to catch.  If we are concerned about the enemy ... If they get their hands on this sight we have bigger issues than proselytization.

Once again it is nothing but PC run amok, and Trijicon had to make a choice based on a lot that we don't know about.  However, I will repeat that someday someone will have to answer for pushing the subject and for using the kit to remove the reference.

I was issued several TA01NSN scope from 95-08' in the Army.  I don't ever remember hearing anyone catching the reference.  Moot point and a none issue.  It still says "In God We Trust" on our currency.

GOD is available in every language and country. The new testament is not. This is not about GOD .

 That's a marketing ploy I haven't seen before. I have a 200.00 Sightron and a 70.00 Shooter's Edge and they work fine.

I didn't have plans to buy a Trijicon before I learned of the Bible verses, but I was planning on buying as a result of their stand....but that's out the window now....back to the Tru-Glo's for me....

They make a GOOD PRODUCT. No I won't boycott, BUT they're expensive enough I may never get one any way.
