It looks like some (if not all?) ACOG’s come preinscribed with bible verse references…
Check yours today!
I found this story over at DoubleTapper (click here for the reference and full story). Mr. DT called Trijicon and got the following information:
“Each Trijicon Scope model has a specific Scriptural Reference. All of the Trijicon ACOG 4×32 model scopes have “JN8:12″ on them. All Trijicon Reflex Scopes have ”2COR4:6″ on them. All Trijicon TA55 ACOG 5.5×50 Scopes have “MT5:16″and all Accupoint scopes have REV21:23
2COR4:6 refers to the Christian New Testament, 2nd Corinthians, chapter 4, verse 6, which says, “For God, who commanded the light to shine out of the darkness, that shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.”
And MT5:16 refers to the Christian New Testament, the first book, Matthew Chapter 5, Verse 16 which says, “In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.”
And REV21:23 refers to Revelations chapter 21, verse 23 which says “And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.”

When we receive testimonials like this, it makes all of our efforts worth while. At the same time, it also makes it clear that the world we are living in is getting scarier, not safer.
