The inventor of the ACOG and founder of Trijicon, Glyn Bindon, was killed this morning while flying his small plane in Alaska. Two others were flying with him, but no survivors.

Been a bad month. Joe Bonar at Wayne Novak's
was killed 2 weeks ago in a car accident. Joe was an amazing smith and we will all miss his skills and humor. I hope we can carry on with new blood-

This is truely sad news.  I remember Mr. Bindon trying to help us Marines many times over the years--even though back then, we didn't know we needed help. He was a fine gentleman and an important inovator who measureably improved the performance of our weapons and helped us recently to achieve "tactical dominance" over those who would harm us.  
My prayers to his family and his son Steven.

Ok, this response is a little confusing.


My sympathies go out to his family.

That’s from New Orleans.  Morn his passing, but celebrate his life. The next time you go into the Local Neighborhood Watering Hole, Lift a toast to his memory.[<]:)]

Then ask when some of the Antis will go fa down, go splat.  And let us Freedom Lovers in peace.[X]
