Has anyone had any experience with the 2x 'ers? I have decided upon the Aimpoint platform, but dont know if I should go w/ 1x or 2x.  Please Help!

I have no personal experiencewith a 2x AImpoint but have read some posts here where the guys don't seem to like them.  Consensus seems to be to go with the ACOG if you want magnification.

I can speak for the 1x Aimpoint...mine has been great.

GoodLuck

Thanks BJWar,

This entire 2x kick came from a hog hunt last month.  I needed the extra magnification, and I saw that Aimpoint had these...........go figure that they aren't popular.

BTW, this will be mounted on a M14 BHD clone.

Don't get the 2x, it seems I recall Aimpoint testing a zoom module that is 3x that will work with the normal Aimpoint units...I don't have anything to back this up but I saw it on this site somewhere...

It was on display at the infantry conference.
There was a long thread in the AR15 forum. Do a search there. It was posted by dennysguns. IIRC.

Whatever you do, do NOT get the 2x Aimpoint.  

It sucks.  

FOV is non-existent.  

2x is truly teh suxor.
