GBRS Group in Sweden | Building An Aimpoint Micro T2 Red Dot

Last fall, DJ and Jay were invited by Aimpoint to visit the company’s headquarters in Malmö, Sweden. During their trip, they received a full tour of the headquarters, including the factory and production areas. They had the chance to meet multiple members and departments of the company as well as shoot and mingle with Team Aimpoint [Shooting team]. One of the highlights of the trip was the opportunity to film DJ and Jay on the factory floor as they assembled their own Micro T2 optics from start to finish excluding a few proprietary steps. This was an incredible experience. A huge thank you to the entire Aimpoint team for the world-class hospitality and for granting such rare, exclusive access to your manufacturing process.
