Gunfighter Moment – Larry Vickers 
June 8th, 2013
As many of you know I use Aimpoints almost exclusively for my red dot optics. In my opinion they are the best on the market, hands down. My favorite is the Micro T1 but the Micro H1 will serve the majority of your needs just as well. For carbines I prefer the 2 MOA dot and for PDW’s or sub guns the 4 MOA dot is more to my liking. For shots past 50 yds the smaller dot is a plus and for shots under that distance the slightly larger dot is quicker to pick up on target
