    Onward Christian Soldiers

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/8468981.stm


    A high powered automatic weapons sight manufacturer is run to biblical standards.

    FFS, whatever next. How stupid can people be.

    "Blessed are those who blow holes in people from great distances, AMEN"
    Faster, faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.

    Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead.

    flip me, I assume it's 7.62 Nato. Rather than 7.62 Russian.

    The 303 SMLE would do a damn sight better than 900 yards.

          Everyone is worried that if they were captured in combat that the enemy would use the Bible quotes against them in captivity or some other form of propaganda

              Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                Do you think it would be ok if these gunsights referenced Shakespeare?

                "Soft, what light through yonder window breaks?".

                Frankly, I'm amazed anyone gives a damn.

                  Talk military please : mils : 1m in 1km.

                  Once wrote a C++ class for mils. Defining point of my career.
