I am reminded of the story about the legendary Marine Sniper, the late Carlos Hathcock where he was able to snipe an enemy marksman, just as the two sighted each other. Hathcock's round entered the VC's brain by traveling right thru the tube of the scope and into the eye of the VC.

I have the Trijicon ACOG on my working guns.......excellant piece of gear. Very expensive ! If this Marine still has his on his rifle I'm wondering if it was left for show and tell or is still operational ?

I'm e-mailing Trijicon with this story and if anything ask em to replace the Marines sight . If they won't I'll try and find an addy and mail him one on my dime !

Now that GW's unencumbered with the election I suspect that a world of hurt is enroute to the terrorist assholes of the world and this troop will need a new ACOG !

Stay safe !
