EaZeNuTZ33 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I have a T1 in Larue mount and an M4s in Larue mount. I love both of them, but if I were still shooting in Tac-Irons/Limited, I would still be shooting my M4s. I like the larger window and am faster with it. With the T1 and trying to be fast, I perceive the window as being small and my confidence is lower compared to running my M4s where the window I'm looking through seems massive and the dot just pops up for me.

Moltke Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Try G&R Tactical. They usually have good deals and fair pricing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benchmstr Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 because its what travis haley and chris costa run....seriously, before magpul dynamics nobody ran them like they do today. go on to any fanboy site and everyone there is running it cause haley, and costa run them. i have a love/hate going with the T1...i like the size, but i hate that i dont have ANY lens cover options at all. full grown men complaining about the added weight of an standard aimpoint on top of a 7.5" sbr is beyond laughable.... bench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MickB Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Try the new IO Aimpoint micro cover. It's a cover like those for the larger Aimpoints, but with built in covers...

Also why carry more weight than you need if it gives you no advantage. I prefer the micro for that reason and will never buy a full size red dot again probably.

Moltke Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Fanboyisms aside, its good tech. I can't think of a reason to own a non-micro Aimpoint unless I was on a budget, then I'd get a PRO with a mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1911vm Posted September 13, 2013 Author Share Posted September 13, 2013 so if I could get a 4s for the same price as T1 actually $50 LESS . or should I stay on my T1 quest ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug H. Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 I have a H-1 on my Saiga and I really like it. It's a little cheaper than the T-1 and I think the only difference is that the H-1 isn't set up for night vision. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1911vm Posted September 14, 2013 Author Share Posted September 14, 2013 Actually there are several things that are different between the 2. I actually researched it. But the biggest to me is the actual body. T1 is maid much stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alaskapopo Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Actually there are several things that are different between the 2. I actually researched it. But the biggest to me is the actual body. T1 is maid much stronger. Actually according to an Aimpoint rep the two are identical except for the lens coating to protect night vision devices. They also warranty the T model for going deeper in the water but both are made tot he same specs but if you happen to ruin your T1 scuba diving your covered but not with the H1.

Moltke Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Your link isn't working, or at least it's taking me to the Aimpoint website and not loading the comparison. Can you summarize what its showing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I see as the listed differences right there. I had also heard from an Aimpoint rep different than what they put up on their website apparently. So either the rep didn't know the differences, or didn't care to explain them, or the somebody's wrong. Speculation on my part follows -- It is possible that the T-1's are simply NV capable and "certified" to toughter stats, then marketed accordingly because that's what LE/MIL would want, while civilians don't necessarily care about that stuff and would want a slightly cheaper product.

MickB Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 H1 and T1 both have the same surface finish. Aimpoint discontinued the semi-gloss finish on the H1 a few years ago and went to matte finish across the board... Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coordinator Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Aimpoint uses the same body for both the H1 and T1. The H1 is not compatible with NV, however it will work in a pinch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickB Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 Nope, I have a silver R1 from when Midway blew them out for $299. When the H1 first came out, it was in a semi gloss black finish, while the T1 was a matte black. Aimpoint later went to the same matte finish on both H1 and T1. So yes, older H1 units have a shiny black finish... Mick H1 and T1 both have the same surface finish.

spencerhut Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 We have several T1 / H1 on the GG&G mounts. The mounts work out well with the integrated Butler Creek covers. ans QD mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
