I own 3 aimpoints. 2 T-1's, and a COMP M4. Item 1: T-1, bought new in early 2009. About 3000 rounds under this one including some classes... run pretty hard. No problems, still using original battery. Item 2: T-1, bought new in late 2009. Aboit 1500 rounds under this one, just range training on this one so far. No problems, still using orginal battery. Item 3: Comp M4, bought used in late 2010. Mainly got this for some variety. It was "used" but appeared brand new. Unknown previous round count, but not many is my guess. I've only shot about 350 rounds under so far (bad weather). No problems, and obviously still the orginal battery. |

| ML3 purchased in May 2010, still using original batteries, been through about 1k rounds. dropped my gun more than a couple times, even from a tree stand and it was still sighted in correctly. It hasn't been turned off yet. well maybe once or twice, but it was turned on immediately when I got it back. My only concern is that the LEDs will eventually go out, that's when I flip the irons up and carry on. Get ya sum! |

Comp M2
Bought early 01...............I think. No issues what so ever. Even had it underwater. Maybe 8,000 rounds so far. ?? |

One is an OLD 80's Pre 1000 that actually works perfectly with a standard 123 3v! 1 ea M3 2moa 3 ea M2's that all seen Iraq. All work 100% perfect and even have good glass. Never had to change a battery. I've become a huge Aimpoint fan.

Aimpoint Comp M4- Used as my current police patrol optic this has never failed or given any problems. This unit is roughly 4 years old. Aimpoint Comp M4- Used on training weapons and for my secondary duty carbine, it has been flawless. This unit is 4+ years old. Aimpoint T-1- Used on training weapons, but has not seen much hard use. This unit is 3+ years old and has been flawless. I would use any of these optics on my duty weapon without hesitation. |

| Comp M2 - Purchased in 2004 - Never had a problem or complaint with it to this day and its been dropped, bumped, banged, drenched, frozen and muddy. |
Just ass kicking that kicks ass that, while said ass is getting kicked, is kicking yet more ass that's hitting someone's balls with a hammer made of ice but the ice is frozen whiskey!
| Used an M2 that belonged to a buddy off and on for about 4 years. Never had a single problem with it. Loved it so much I bought my own M2 last year. I know it's dated but it works like a champ! Shot the hell out of a rifle with it on, it's hit the deck pretty hard with me a few times, still no problem. |

Comp M2, purchased in 2003. Mounted on my US Army M4 carbine with the standard Aimpoint mount and dual battery holder.
It deployed with me to Afghanistan and Iraq. Covered with dirt, sand, and mud. Carried in freezing rain. Used in temp ranges of from around 20 degrees (Below zero windchill) to 130 degrees in Iraq. Weapon has been dropped and banged around while rapidly exiting and entering buildings, HMMWV's, and helicopters. A few thousand rounds thru 2 diffrent weapons. Now mounted on my personal CMMG 16" M4. Holds zero, no fogging, never a problem with the switch or dot itself. Still on the original battery. (I switch it off when not actually carrying or shooting the weapon.) Only problem is the springs on the flip up covers broke/wore out. I have not replaced them and I dont care. It does not affect actual operation. This is the only sight I want on a weapon I have to trust my life to, and I would buy another. |
| I have a CompM3 2 MOA w/LaRue mount, purchased new from LaRue as a set in 2009. It's never had any problems at all. I actually leave it on most of the time (it lives on my LMT CQB MRP), and I have not changed the batteries yet even once. I'd do it all over again. |
