? What to replace my Eotech exps2 with ( refund thing)

[Ryno12]

My long experience with the T-1 convinced me that for my expectations and needs, the form factor is of negligible benefit and the 20 mm tube makes for occasionally problematic alignment. I assume that the T-2 has been improved to eliminate my other issues like weird internal reflections and crappy dot precision (almost unusable with a magnifier), but for me it's irrelevant...not near enough benefit to justify its rather breathtaking cost for sight and mount compared to, for example, a PRO.

I will say that a couple of months ago I put that T-1 in an ADM low-pro QD mount and put it on my Benelli M2. In that application, it works great for me.

Yeah, the Micros have zero appeal to me. The Pros are "just ok". Maybe if Aimpoint was capable of providing a decent mount with their RDSs, I'd give it more reconsideration. However, there are other attributes with their stuff that I'm not thrilled about, so probably not.

The whole Aimpoint fanboyism gets pretty tired here.

Anything Aimpoint would be a better choice than what you had.

Not a fanboy, but I do recommend things that work. If your main gripe with Aimpoint is they don't provide a decent mount, that's a pretty lame excuse. I could care less about whether they offer a mount. I care about having an optic that works without fail. I can go elsewhere and get a third party mount of excellent quality.

I really want to like Eotech. I have owned Eotechs. But I can't recommend them.

Having to spend an additional $100-150+ on a mount for an already overpriced optic is a lame excuse?

And no, it's not my main gripe, it's one of my many gripes.

Whatever they put in the box, someone will want something different, and complain about the effect on purchase price.

It's the only gripe you listed. But again, I'm ok with spending more for an optic (and a mount) that work. Eotechs are not really bargain priced either.

I stated that there was other things that I didn't like but I didn't go into detail. Hmac touched on some which is why I quoted him in agreement.

It's ok for us to disagree. Everyone's needs & wants vary from one to another.

I agree. Although I am inclined to prefer Aimpoint (the PRO at least) because of its cost-efficiency, I have two Eotechs...both have worked without fail for several years.

Personally, I couldn't buy an Aimpoint without it being a micro, but that's all personal opinion. The whole mount thing is a bit ridiculous though.

T1 less blue ? Maybe more clear .
MRO better price and I like the larger

Can't beat the aimpoint track record.
