This is easily one of the most embarrassing threads in recent times. The tranny take over of '14-'15 has nothing on this fucking thread.

Has anyone actually taken advantage of this? Came across this thread saying trijicon backed out of the whole deal and the 40% was good for only the vets they met at different shows and gave the card to.

Trijicon introduced the Veterans Blue Star Promotion to thank those veterans we met at various events around the country. We passed a few discount cards out at a couple of shows over the past few months. The program has made its way into social media and we have been inundated with requests to extend the program to veterans at large. We are not prepared to use this program on that scale. So, we will honor the discounts as promised to those people that possess a numbered card presented at an event. We will not extend this program beyond those card holders. However, the overwhelming response has demonstrated the need for a structured promotion for veterans. We will get to work on a program that offers attractive rebates on products purchased through our distribution partners. We appreciate your service and we want to offer a program that honors that service. Please stay tuned to Trijicon.com and check with your local retailing dealers for further details in the months to come. http://www.reddit.com/r/guns/comments/2vb0z3/trijicon_backs_out_on_providing_40_discount_for/ Irony. This thread put on full display all the worst attributes of humanity, but through it all, the delicious irony shines through. Fuck You Trijicon, for trolling the young vets like that.

It would be smart for them to offer this same discount to say disabled combat vets for one or maybe lifetime NRA members for another......

Personally, I think trijicon can do whatever the hell they want. their company, however, they REALLY could have handled this better lol. Learning experience maybe? who knows. being as big as they are, they might not even give two shits

Whiners always ruin it for everyone.
Why can't you just realize that during life, some things will benefit you, some things will not. Just because they don't benefit you this time, doesn't mean that you don't get benefits that others don't get at that time. Such is life. When you whine, you ruin it for those who can benefit. Then the next time around, someone is going to whine about your benefits. In the end, we all loose. But hey, whine all you want. Now nobody can get the deal. |

Yeah that's pretty crappy of them - no matter their reasons for doing so, it definitely comes off as an insult to anyone that was in before that. That is quite shitty. Did you voluntarily raise your right hand during a time of war(s)? That's probably the biggest difference between GWOT-era vets and most others. That doesn't seem like a very fair statement. People that volunteered during the Cold War knew they could be involved in the most devastating war in history; that luckily never happened. |
