[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Aimpoint Pro vs T1

Posted: 10/22/2012 4:51:31 PM EDT

New member and AR owner,
I just shot my new Sig Sauer 516 yesterday and was completely awed by its work on the range.
I need help with some differences in the Aimpoint pro vs the T1. What is best, strong points?
I have pored over this great web site and haven't found this answered yet. Thanks in advance
BTW. I will be looking to purchase one of these....any hints on places to buy?
I will be shooting inside 100 yds. And doing close qtr drills to help with speed and accuracy with the sig
Thanks,
Mark

LaRue is a good place if you want one of their mounts. I'd recommended it. If you want the PRO with stock mount, PSA carries them.
The PRO is cheaper and has a bigger lens which some like.
The T1 is lighter and more compact.

You can't really go wrong with either.

The PRO is bulletproof. Hammer proof. ME proof. Like a tank.

I have the T1. Very light weight. Great battery life.... As you get older <like me

The pro is a great optic, especially because of its price point. But has been said, weighs more. I had the pro and loved it. But weight was more than I wanted on my rifle. Should have my t1 and larue mount combo delivered by ups in the morning.

I have multiple Micros and multiple big tubes, including three Pros.

I like the big tubes a touch better, I think. Also, the mount is included.

But the Micros are nice!

Can't go wrong either way.

Midway with ARFCOM code.
