I have an Aimpoint PRO... Which I like a lot. It has lens caps, that you really never have to open if you really need to get to it fast. It has an incredibly long battery life, and I really dig the automatic torque feature it has built into the mount should you need to remove and replace for some reason... Which I never thought I'd do, but seem to do often enough that I'm glad it has that feature.
Sometimes I feel on real bright days, it could be a little brighter though...
My biggest complaint is the weight. It's not much, but it's a lot heavier than a T1 or an H1. Or even an Eotech XPS2.
I can't get myself to spend that much money on a T1 or an H1 though so I bought the Primary Arms Advanced Micro Dot.
It has a super long battery life, is super tiny, NV compatible, and weighs like nothing. Plus it's a lot cheaper than the Aimpoint micro dots.
I still really like my Aimpoint PRO, but I have to ask myself why I need such a big heavy red dot, when the micro dots do the same thing at a fraction of the weight?
Although now the T2 came out, and has the same type of lens caps that I like, just like the PRO has... But it's in the 700's for price I think...
