So I just got a used Aimpoint comp ml2 and theres no dot showinbg in the first 4 clicks. It looks legit all the proper markings are there, I researched fake aimpoints and this one looks like the real thing.
Could the battery need replacing?

I would try replacing the battery first.

are you sure that you got a ML2 and not a M2?

The M2 has 4 NVD settings and 6 Daylight settings.

it has comp ml2 4 moa  right above the part number and serial number.

try replacing the battery.

If you can, try the lowest settings in a dark room. Even though it is all daylight, the lowest settings will be pretty dim.

OK just tried it, nothing on the first 2 clicks but on the third its insanely dim. probably the battery. The guy I got it from said he had it for a long time but never used it. So it might be the original battery in it.

That's normal. The first few clicks are for really dark areas.

Like everyone said, ho with a new battery first.  Also when in a dark room, let your eyes aclamate for at least 5 to 10 minutes first.

The first two to three clicks on mine are real faint, can barely see the dot.

the first 4 settings or so are nvg compatible if the dot is there on setting 7-11 the batts are good it's working correctly.  11 should be so bright it almost hurts the eyes.

This.  First few settings are visible with NVG only.  Post a pic of your aimpoint if you want us to confirm authenticity.

If it's an ML2, that's not the case.  If it's an M2/3, then that would be correct.  The OP may not know what he has or the battery is low.

Apologies, I was wrong - didn't notice it was a CompML2 - thought it was a CompM2/3.
