    I'd go ML3, which strikes a nice balance between the M4 and C3

    Meh. Must have skimmed through to fast. No biggie, just one more personal opinion for the OP.

    I like the M4S + LaRue mount.

    Bomb proof as shit.

    I'd love if they made a micro version (T1 = Micro Comp M3).

    I'd buy it.

    Personally I hate the battery being on top, I much prefer the S version. It feels like an EOTech but better, to me.

    Actually the T1 is more like the M4 than the Com C3 as you said. The T1 is a lot more water proof.

    I guess that's true. If they made a 2 MOA or even 1 MOA (I've been waiting for this forever) sighted T1, I'd be all over it.

    1 MOA Comp M4S would be tits.

    I don't think Aimpoint will ever be releasing a 1 MOA dot; there wouldn't be a point.

    And the reticle on the 2 MOA variants already is small if you crank down the brightness some.

    What would a 1 MOA reticle offer you that 2 MOA currently isn't? If you need sub MOA groups on targets at long ranges, an Aimpoint probably isn't the right optic for that application anyway.


    And for the OP, I will echo the statements of others that have suggested the CompC3 with either the ADM or LaRue mount.

    Crank the brightness up and the dot would appear 2 MOA, lower it and when it hits 1 MOA it would obscure a target less. Not by much, but every bit helps.

    But a 2 MOA T1 would be better than any 1 MOA Aimpoint sight...

    While they claim the T1/H1 are 4 MOA they're really closer to 3, so it's pretty moot

    aimpoint

    I can tell you this about the Aimpoint M4s with GG mount....it served my son well for 7 months in Astan. He told me he loved it and was very happy that he did not have to worry about extra batteries or running them down after forgetting to turn the thing off after 4 days straight of patrols. He brought it back home to me as he does not need it any longer... (he is in sniper school as we speak) and I mounted the well worn battle trophy on one of my ARs. If you look at the sand blasted finish on the that thing, you would appreciate the durability of both the Aimpoint and the mount.

    Current/late models of the M2, ML2 are reported to have as much as a 30,000hr battery life even though they are still "officially" rated at 10,000hr.
