I have a Theoron Defence 40cal with an aimpoint h1 that co-witness with my flip up sights. Curious if the UTG 3x magnifier will work with this set up. The aimpoint has a high (AR style) mount. Even though this is a very reasonable optic just don't want to buy it just to try. Interested in any feedback Or experience with the 2?

I tried the UTG magnifier a few years ago, but it did not match up with my Aimpoint Pro:

It felt pretty solid, locked positively the regular and flipped to side position, but I ended up flipping it because the fact that it did not line up was bugging me.

I ended up getting an Eotech G33 and it lined up perfectly with my Aimpoint PRO. I've also used the G33 with my Aimpoint Micro H1 which sits on a Larue LT660 mount which is the same height as the factory PRO and mount.

Hope that helps, sorry, no pics.
 
Thank you for the quick reply. It appears from your pic that the UTG was higher than the pro. My aimpoint micro with the high mount looks like it might be higher. Also the lens diameter on me aimpoint appears to be smaller than the UTG optic. Hmmmm hopfully someone else has tried as it seems it might be close....
 
My G33 lines up perfectly with my PRO, and also lines up perfectly with these guys so they should be the same height?
