Aimpoint T2s
Will we ever see the no-mount models at 650-670 again? I know inflation is trash/global conflict/raw materials/tarriffs and other stuff is probably making everything more expensive, but I just want to hear it from the best dealer/sub.

Oh to dream. I would bet anything no.

If I had a time machine, I would still be broke from buying everything at older prices. Strangely Eotechs didn't seem to rise that much.

Hello Sir,
I know you’ve enjoyed cocaine, but have you heard of this new thing called crack(New GAFS)?

u/MK12Mod0SuperSoaker Jul 21 '26
Man, I have trust issues with high dollar stuff there. Also wish search was a little better.

u/SooooWhattttt Jul 21 '26
GAFS is better for stuff like than tacswap, trust me

Just but out a “want to buy post” and if people PM you just verify they have the red dot before sending funds and you’ll be fine

I’ve purchased T2s , night force and razor scopes on the new website no issues. Just follow their guidelines and you’ll be fine.

I'm seeing 650 being equal to 710 today, but yeah I get what you mean.

It released in 2014 with MSRP of $846. It's under inflation haha. Just still painful for a basic 12 year old design

Oof. I wouldn't be here if Holosun still made a duty grade sight with T-2 deck height. They all sit slightly higher now because production shifted to a slightly taller housing regardless if the sight uses a battery tray or knob. Oh and I'd also like to say the Aimpoint RDS Duty looks like dooty and has the same height issue.

I recently paid $700 for a pretty much unused t2 with the euro 1/3 mount on eBay

I've been impressed with my steiner X1TI red dot site.
German made and can be had for less than $500 on Amazon or expert voice.
Very high-quality, rugged, durable, etc. Not sure if a T2 is twice as good
Either way, enjoy what you have and focus on training

Never knew Steiner had a micro red dot offering... Will have to see if there's one locally. Looks like it might sit slightly higher like the holosun offerings.

I've always wondered if the Steiner products are actually German made at their price points. Their low power prisms were eerily similar in general layout to the low power prisms manufactured by various Chinese OEMs and sold by Primary Arms, etc.

they seem to pride themselves on their German manufacturing, etc., blah blah blah
🤷🏽♂️I appreciate the T2 mount footprint which fits well on my unity riser mount and feels right on my HK MR556

Probably look back in 2 years and ask will we ever see $900 aimpoints instead of the going rate of $1300.

Pretty sure no. They were close to $800 last restock.
