When it comes to red dot optics, the T1/T2 from Aimpoint remains our first choice, as it is simple, extremely robust, and proven to work when it counts. Today, Aimpoint announced a new optic that, at first glance, looks a lot like the Aimpoint T1/T2, with a “budget friendly” price of $499 that makes it very attractive.
Lots of new products are expected to be showcased at this year’s SHOT Show. One of which is the new Vortex Micro6x.

With the announcement of the Holosun A.E.M.S. or the Advanced Enclosed Micro Sight, we reached out to Steve “Yeti” Fisher of Sentinel Concepts, who has been using the new LED optic for several months. Fisher is our go-to source to learn about upcoming optics, and we wanted to get his first, but certainly not final, impressions of the new optic, learn about some of the features, and what firearms he feels the optic would be suited for.
For many shooters looking for a relatively inexpensive red dot optic for their handgun or an offset red dot for their AR, a name that comes up is Holosun. The optics are often selected for their lower cost vs. U.S.-made optics, while still having a reputation for being reasonably well-made.
