Overview

The Aimpoint Micro T-2 represents the pinnacle of military-grade red dot technology, refined through decades of combat feedback and professional use. Introduced in 2014 as an evolution of the legendary T-1, the T-2 incorporates advanced optical coatings that eliminate the bluish tint common in its predecessor, delivering crystal-clear glass with superior target identification in all lighting conditions. The patented housing design with front lens protection and improved optical system makes this the benchmark against which all other micro red dots are measured.

Built from hard-anodized aluminum alloy, the T-2 is submersible to 80 feet and rated for extreme temperature operation from -49°F to 160°F. The ACET (Advanced Circuit Efficiency Technology) power management delivers an astounding 50,000 hours of continuous operation on a single CR2032 battery—over 5 years of always-on readiness. With four night vision compatible settings and eight daylight settings including an extra-bright mode for use with laser protection glasses, the T-2 adapts to any operational environment.

The 2 MOA red dot provides rapid target acquisition at close quarters while maintaining precision for engagements beyond 200 yards. The steeply angled front lens eliminates distortion when using magnifiers, and integrated flip-up lens covers protect the optics without adding bulk. Special operations units, law enforcement agencies, and discerning civilians worldwide trust the T-2 as their primary aiming solution.
