Screw them. Make them explain how something written on a rifle scope (or any other part) is proselytizing. When they do, thell them it’s not good enough (and hint how it will affect aid money to them).

Wow, the last thing one would see before blowing someone’s brains out, would be a bible verse. Sure would be ironic if it resulted in a miss and an innocent got shot.

I read last night that this company has been puting these codes on the scopes for 2 decades. Who besides the shooter can see these codes? Now zer0 is CIC and they have to take them off the scopes.. Yeah right!!!!!!!

Can they still dip the tips of the bullets in bacon fat before loading them into magazines?

A defence contractor will voluntarily stop stamping references to Bible verses on combat rifle sights made for the US military.

They need to seriously rethink that position.

My bet is that no one in Iraq or Afghanistan would have had a complaint or even noticed until this was stirred up by the MSM.

On Thursday, however, General David Petraeus, Central Command’s chief officer, called the references “disturbing".

What is "disturbing" is the Pentagon's reaction.
Where's the proselytizing?
Frankly - I think 'proselytizing' would be a very good thing. We aren't going to change anything if we don't change the foundation. And building up regimes that still adhere to a book that essentially tells its followers to either convert, enslave, or kill 'non-islamics' ... seems a bit 'short-sided'.
But my opinions aside - where is the proselytizing? The letters and numbers are virtually invisible, and someone would need a Bible to cross-reference the verses (let alone interpret what the numbers and letters meant)...

What a crock... PC is going to be the death of Western Civilization...
I rank this one up there with General Casey's sputterings that he essentially preferred American soldiers being killed than to risk offending budding jihadists in his ranks...

They've probably got thousands of them in inventory that are now relegated to “surplus” status.

Wonder if they'll have a sale? I'd like to help them out but I'd have to buy another rifle that fits underneath it. Hmmmm......

Yea, though I walk through the valley of darkness, I will fear no evil, because I am the meanest son of a bitch in the valley.

I’d like to see the count of how many soldiers using the sights will actually request the modification kits to remove the verses. If they have a say in the matter.
