Aimpoint Announces the T2 Optic

[UWone77]

Anyone else notice the Aimpoint T2 went from coming in September 2014, to Fall 2014, to.... disappearing from the website all together? I guess that's par for the course in the firearms industry. Release dates are all tentative.

They may be scared that a higher priced version of a T1 may bomb, but it probably won't. Still crossing my fingers for a price drop on the H1.

I PM'd a guy on another forum that's in the industry and he said probably after SHOT 2015. I sure hope he is wrong...

That would explain why the release date was pulled. ... perhaps they've put the T2 on the backburner until SHOT's over?

Must have an overstock of micros they need to sell first.

Sweet!

Aimpoint wins again!

From Aimpoint:

The T-2 link was accidentally made live when it shouldn't have been made live until the actual launch. The T-2 will be here soon! There will be plenty of official announcements and you will see the announcement on our Facebook page and website.

Huh...been wanting to try a micro, and hoping that this drops some of the other micro prices.....But Its a hard decision when you havent played with either and no where around me or anyone i know of locally has one to try out, before i fork out a pile of $$$

In your case, I like I've said, I'd wait for the T2 release and then find an H1 on the secondary market. In fact you'll probably find people dumping them just prior to release in anticipation. Just from the specs, to me the T2, seems more like a T1.5. Not sure it offers enough of an "upgrade" for me to shell out anymore money.

Well today the T2 has been released and at a $846 MSRP. For comparison purposes the MSRP on the T1 is $753. They will start shipping out to dealers mid-October. Sorry to all you price drop dreamers out there.

I wish I could deliver projects in commercial and high-rise construction the way the firearms business does. I would literally have zero stress.

Magpul finally got the memo, as they stopped announcing anything they're not ready to release, for the most part.

I would never have expected to see an immediate drop. That's not how these things work anywhere but at Apple.

Even long term though I just don't get the feeling that Aimpoint will drop the prices on their Micro offerings. They are wildly popular and people have shown that they will pay the current prices. But boy I hope that I'm wrong, I would certainly like to add another Micro to my newest rifle at lower than current prices.

As far as the T2 goes, I would like to handle one to see the difference and then determine whether its worth the additional cost.

Looks to be a little to rich for me.
