Does anyone still prefer the fullsize Aimpoints??

They are bulkier and have more of a 'blind spot' than the Micros.

I've always put mine at the very front of the receiver in a lower 1/3 mount and with both eyes open, I've never felt like I needed to peek around the optic to see what was going on.

Yeah... it's by no means a deal breaker... just a minor thing I noticed. The C3 is still my go to.

i like the micros because of their compactness, however the dot is a bit easier to find on the full size/bigger tube when i'm shooting from weird positions and can't get a proper cheek weld. also once in a while i mount a pvs-14 behind the sight, and the full size one gives me more field of view through the pvs-14, whereas the micro tube is too small. i have both and like them for different things.

I've had a T-1 on one of my SBRs for a few years. Never particularly cared for it. I am otherwise about 50-50 Eotech EXPS's and Aimpoint PROs. Definitely prefer the full size RDS. I don't hate the T-1 such that I'd be inclined to dump it, but especially given the cost, I'd be unlikely to ever buy another micro.

I had a brief but intense love affair with the T1 and H1. Next time I buy optics I plan to go for a 1-4 ACOG or something similar.

A lot of low to med power magnification optics out there offer 1x with red dot style use for cqb and some magnification to go along with if you want it/need it, hard to overlook those.

Definitely the full-size models. My M2 is still going strong even considering that it has taken a lot of abuse(the exterior shows). The glass is still exceptionally clear and the outer casing is very robust.

What rifle is that?

Pricey, but well made rifles.

P.S. I prefer the larger M2/ M3 Aimpoints too. I use the micro for a back-up sight.

I'm in the market for a t1 micro if any of you lot feel like off loading one.

I have a "C" model and T1, and although I love the compactness and light weight of the T1, I still shoot the full size faster... Although the T1 is a 2 MOA, my groups are no better with it, thought they would be... Amazing how accurate that 4MOA dot can be if you are familiar with it...
