Trijicon has dropped a bomb on Aimpoint...

Only thing I'm aware of is they had biblical scripture codes on their products and they told the government to pound sand when they told them they had to remove them from military gear. Trijicon didn't take any government grants to develop their optics or other products, they did the R&D on their own dime, the government just thought it was a good product so they bought it for the military. Government had no right to make them remove it so they didn't. Their response was if you don't like our product, don't buy it.

 

That was not their response, and the most certainly did not tell the .gov to pound sand (metaphorically, of course).  They complied with the requested change of the contract, and promised that future deliveries would not have a bible verse marking on them.

Trijicon corporate isn't stupid, they know their bread is buttered by military sales and exposure that comes through those government contracts to the US and other NATO countries armed forces.  Protecting them is priority #1.
