It really depends on the application, are we talking pistol or rifle?

If price is no issue, skip the T1 and go with either a T2 or Comp M5.

T2
Skip the T1 The LCO looks interesting, but it is larger and I am not sure of any significant track record for it. I think the LCO has a larger lens, so that may come into play... But there is the Comp series from Aimpoint, and the M5 isn't very large, but has a larger objective lens if I remember correctly. I don't know the battery life of the LCO, but I doubt it can beat the T2. What happened to the RMR? I do not think of the micro reflex sights like the RMR and DPP to be suitable for a primary optic on a duty rifle... Nor any rifle that would get banged around a lot. |

The T2 is built such that it protects the cap and elevation turret of the optic. There is also a substantial difference in optical clarity, smoother/more audible rotary adjustments, flip caps and less parallax ... it’s worth the couple extra bucks.

LCO if you like a larger clear window. The lco probably never took off because of it’s price.

Application is home defense/zombie rifle.

So I'll tweak the battery spring and order the seal plate thing, stick it on a P80, and never trust it. Quoted:

Quote HistoryQuoted: The biggest issue with T1 was that the screw threads stripped, did they address that specific issue? |

T2. Tougher body, helicoiled threads, not a blue window with a red splotch.
The T1 is a POS. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I wouldn't call it a POS, bit the T2 for a nominal price increase is much better. It's also like half the parallax. Green eye tactical report: T2 = 4.5 MOA average deviation across all tests T1 = 9.7 MOA " " LCO = 12.9 MOA " " MRO = 13.4 MOA " " T2 is much better. Sorry to hear about the RMR. Most have been pretty reliable. If you want to stick with a mini-reflex. I have high regard for Leupold's Deltapoint Pro. I have two of them. Using the same target and test protocol as in the above test, my DPPs have an average of only 3 MOA parallax shift. That's even better than T2. And it has all the virtues of the RMR, but with much better optical clarity, no battery compartment issues, and much larger FOV/viewing screen than either RMR or T2.

Here is the actual data. Both T1 and LCO are terrible on parallax. So is MRO. T2 is much better. Sorry to hear about the RMR. Most have been pretty reliable. If you want to stick with a mini-reflex.
