Trijicon Gunsights

Our ministry of defence has decided to remove the Bible verses from Advanced Combat Optical Gunsights supplied by US manufacturer Trijicon's that are used by Kiwi soldiers. The Defence Forces spokesperson said that having Bible verses on its weapons makes it "uncomfortable".

I can understand the Defences Forces view. What I cannot understand is why Christians would think it is appropriate to put Bible verses on gunsights. How can this honour the gospel.
