Aimpoint Micro T2: Professional-Grade 2 MOA Optic with 5-Year Battery & Multi-Platform Mount Support
- The Aimpoint Micro T2 is a compact, professional-grade red dot sight designed for rapid target acquisition in any lighting condition. This field-proven optic is the industry standard for law enforcement and military units who need a reliable aiming solution that never turns off.
- Pinpoint Accuracy with 2 MOA Dot & NVG Compatibility: The crisp 2-MOA red dot provides a precise aiming point that won't obscure your target at a distance. It features 4 night-vision compatible settings and 8 daylight settings, allowing you to transition from high-noon desert sun to total darkness using night vision goggles.
- 50,000+ Hours of Constant-On Battery Life: A single common CR2032 battery powers the optic for over five years of continuous use. This "always-ready" capability means you never have to fumble with switches during an emergency; the dot is simply there the second you pick up your weapon.
- Combat-Ready from -49°F to 160°F & Waterproof to 80 Feet: This optic is built to survive extreme environments that would destroy commercial electronics. Whether you are operating in arctic freezes, desert heat, or need to submerge the unit up to 80 feet (25 meters) underwater, the Micro T-2 remains fully sealed and operational.
- Universal Compatibility with 10+ Tactical Mounts: The Micro T-2 is designed to fit any weapon system, from standard rifles to specialized setups. We offer configurations including Standard Low Mounts for shotguns, AR-15 Ready heights for a perfect co-witness, and elite-tier options like the Unity Tactical FAST (2.26" height) or the Spuhr "HRT" mount used by federal agencies.

What are some common accessories to add to the Aimpoint T2 Red Dot?
System Protection & Tactical Enhancement for the Aimpoint Micro T2
- Aimpoint® Flip-up Front Lens Cover, Black - Micro®/Comp® M5: This rugged plastic cover shields the objective lens from debris, scratches, and impact when the optic is not in use. It integrates seamlessly with the Micro T2 housing, allowing the operator to quickly flip the spring-loaded cap open for immediate engagement while keeping the glass pristine during transport or movement through thick brush.
- Aimpoint Micro® Series HexCap™: This precision-engineered Anti-Reflection Device (ARD) uses a honeycomb pattern to eliminate objective lens glint and forward optical signature. It snaps securely onto the front of the Micro T2, protecting the lens from impact and scratches while ensuring the operator remains undetected by preventing sun reflection in high-glare environments.

Micro T2 Red Dot FAQs
What is a red dot?
A red dot is a type of sight for your gun that puts a glowing red point on your target. Instead of lining up front and back metal sights, you just put the red dot on what you want to hit and pull the trigger. It helps you aim much faster with both eyes open.
What is MOA and what does 2 MOA mean?
MOA stands for "Minute of Angle," which is just a way to measure size at a distance. A 2 MOA dot is a small, precise point. At 100 yards, the dot will look like it is 2 inches wide. This is great because the dot is small enough to let you see your target clearly without covering it up.
What is the Aimpoint T2 weight?
The Aim point T2 is very light. The sight itself weighs only 3.0 ounces (84 grams). Even when you add a standard mount, it only weighs about 3.7 ounces. That is about the same weight as a deck of playing cards.
How long does the Aimpoint T2 battery last?
The battery lasts a very long time. On a single small battery, the light can stay on for over 50,000 hours. That is more than 5 years of never turning the power off!
How do I add a battery to the Aimpoint T2?
It is very easy. The battery lives inside the large dial on the side of the sight. Simply unscrew the cap on the side of that dial, drop in a new CR2032 battery with the plus (+) side facing out, and screw the cap back on tight using your Aimpoint tool.
How do I zero the Aimpoint T2?
"Zeroing" means making the red dot match where your bullets actually hit. Use the included Aimpoint tool to turn the two adjustment screws (one on top for up/down of your Micro T2 Aimpoint, one on the side for left/right). Each "click" moves the dot a tiny bit. Keep adjusting until the dot sits exactly where your shots land on the paper.
Are Aimpoint T2 sights waterproof?
Yes. This sight is very tough and completely sealed. You can take it underwater as deep as 80 feet (25 meters) and it will still work perfectly. It is built to handle heavy rain, snow, and mud.
What makes the Aimpoint T2 so popular?
People love the T2 because it is "bomb-proof." It is famous for being the most reliable compact sight in the world. It is small, the battery lasts for years, and it almost never breaks, even in professional combat use.
