how does it compare to the aimpoint pro?

The PRO is cheaper but has the older AimPoint electronics than The Comp series does. Aimpoint claims 50,000 hours of runtime on a battery for the Comp series vs. 30,000 hours for the PRO. Since the main reason I pay more for an AimPoint is for battery life to me it didn't make sense to get the cheaper model with lower battery life. But, hey that's my value judgement. A lot of folks will say the PRO is fine. Either are great products.

At the current price I'd get the Aimpoint PRO. When I bought the CompC3 here it was $100 cheaper.

It functions the same as an aimpoint pro, but the comp c3 comes with a lower mount so depending how high you want your optic ( the co-witness concept).

Aimpoint. Thats my opinion though. EO's are nice enough too. But for the money id buy this again.

"Pro Pointer" is what Garrett calls their pin pointer. So to answer your question there is no difference. I will say the Pro Pointer is the best pin pointer I have used.

100% fits the Aimpoint Patrol Rifle Optic. I have the PRO and wished someone had answered this for me but I took the chance and it works perfect.

I own both and have used them on deer rifles for several years. I can truthfully say in the field I see absolutely no difference. Dropped a nice buck 15 minutes before legal shooting time was over one evening a week ago using a Pro-Staff scope. Light was waning but I was able to put a good shot on him some 150 yards away with the light transmission from the Nikon.

The pro model is just built to take more punishment, it's thicker and stronger than the basic one. If you are just in your back yard plinking the basic one will work just fine, but if you want to go hiking or put any significant strain on it, I would go for the professional version. It will last for years, I think the only con with it would be it being slightly heavier than the basic model.

It does good for a point and shoot, I dont own a stylus so I cant offer a good comparison.

Hello, I have the Premier version and it is well worth it. The text alerts happen with in a few seconds of the Gun box being, moved and the GPS tracking is great. This is worth it, especially when it comes to gun safety and to prevent any one from doing anything with your guns.

Says it has a ring that fits a weaver base. But I would get the Aimpoint PRO Patrol Rifle Optic. It is basically the same optic, but with more mounting options, including a riser for AR-15 height. Plus flip up lens covers which cost like $30 apiece aftermarket. And it is cheaper. I own 2 of both. Go with the Pro.

Can't remember. It didn't do what I wanted so I returned to for Project Pro. Double check the features you want, standard vs pro.

Looking at responses from others who have the Aimpoint looks like it will. If you would like to test drive it, do what I did. I took mine into a retailer who sells the VMX-3T and had them mount it right there behind my CounterStrike so I could see what it would need right there.

Go for it! I use it as the primary sight on an AR. Really fast when you get used to it.

My bro and I used an EOTech scope before on a previous build M4 rifle. The EOTech could NOT handle the jolting after approx 150 rounds it simply cracked. The interior lens starred and webbed so badly that it was useless. The Aimpoint PRO is built with high quality parts for the public market based on the MILSPEC manufacturing methods they use for the military. They just use slightly lower grade materials to get the scope within the civilian price market range. In my opinion, I would avoid the EOTech based on my experience with them. Just saying......

The quality from both my personal experience with the optic and reviews I've read seem to suggest that it would likely hold up well. You may want to upgrade to an Aimpoint if you're concerned, however.

I have two of the Primary Arms 1-6 scopes and I really like the layout of the reticle. It gives you a lot of information in a very intuitive way. I don't find that the clarity is lacking at all as far out as I've taken shots with mine so far. I have a shoot coming up this weekend with targets out to 480 yds, so I will get a real test of the scope with those. But I would recommend it from my experience so far.

The T1 is much smaller and lighter. PRO adds significant weight to the rifle, although not as much as a COMP sight.

Heightwise yes. Your pro comes in a qrp2 mount and has shims. There is one which will line up. Problem is if want to keep backup irons this will not fit on your rail. The aimpoint in the stock qrp2 mount will be mounted 1/2 to the handguard rail or be hanging off the upper, this is bad. There is just not enough real estate for all 3 items. I went with a larue cantilever mount for the pro, larue flip with aimpoint magnifier and was able to keep my irons. Buy once cry once.
