Aimpoint T-1

[Funkenstein]

He emailed me just now about it.

Thanks for the advice.

Also the MOA isn't a huge deal, correct?

Not everything is going to be instant, and especially when you're looking to save some cash, patience is going to help devil.

I'd look for an H-1 Package, and price it from there. You'll need a mount for it anyway.

The other option is to keep looking. Now that the 2MOA Aimpoint Micros are coming out, tons of folks are looking at their 3.4MOA models that have used less than half of the first battery like a dried up prostitute. Great deals can be had, just takes some lurking.

I keep waiting for this. I really prefer the 4 or whatever MOA dot the T-1 has over the 2MOA.

He has been a member for a few years and owns "Outdoor Tactical". Has anyone dealt with him?

I wouldn't trust that at all. Dot send someone $500 unless they're a known member with a good rating. Make sure your also familer with PayPal procedures. Don't send anyone a check or money order either.
Just saying.

Depending on your local dealer's willingness to work with you, RSRgroup(pretty large distributor) has the T-1 w/ LRP mount on special still. I got mine a month ago and it looks like they are still running the special.

Worth checking at least.

Or just order from gandrtactical and take full advantage of the known quality cust service...

I'm just talking in general. Idk him particularly. If the price is good and it's still there then I would have to think something isn't right. Good deals last 5 min on the EE. Literally sometimes.

And is that the only difference between the T-1 and H-1? Both have 5yr battery life etc.?

T1 = NVG capability and greater immersion resistance (about 150', if I remember correctly)

H1 = no NVG settings and about 15' immersion resistance,

With the T1, you pay more to be able to utilize the reticle under NODs, and to dive to or past about the depth of an Olympic swimming pool for an extended period of time.

Thanks for the clarification.

I was told that the T1 just has a coating to protect night vision devices from the light projected rearward. I was told they are otherwise built the same with the same intensity settings on the knob. As for the immersion resistance the T1 is warrantied to a greater depth but they are made the same as the H1. Meaning if you take an H1 that low and it breaks you are SOL where with the T1 you will get a replacement.

Damn. There goes my dreams of shooting rabid sharks with my CQB.
