Seems like one of those in 9.3x62 would go great in my safe...
WTF good would it do in the safe?

The thread is the optics section under 9000L.
Basically, one guy with an unspecified Aimpoint complained that his battery crapped out after a couple of months. Otherwise, he liked it.
The H1 uses a CR2032, which is cheap and available everywhere. I buy them in bunches on Amazon. Just carry a few in your pack and don't worry. It's wise to check your sight before going in the field, of course. Amazon is also a good place to do a quick price check, as they have multiple suppliers and also sell directly.
I think the main argument against most compacts is that most require a Weaver/Picatinny base and as I mentioned before, the single mounting point might not be sturdy. That may or may not be true in all cases, but the Fastfire I have mounted on my Number 1 looks a little exposed to me. After I wring it out a bit, I'll know more.
Burris makes a Picatinny protector mount for the Fastfires that shields the sight from impact but it might not look so hot on some sporters.

I don't want to hear another fkin word about how ugly Steyr's are...not one. Not sure what you mean. The stock on this Mauser seems to have a fairly normal design with nice lines, unlike the Steyr 
FÜCK Jeff_O!

Does anybody know if the Aimpoint Hunter comes with "diopter"? Meaning can one focus them like a scope, and NOT use eyeglasses?

I couldn't find any reference to focusing in the on-line info, so I guess not.
My distance vision is still pretty good, so the red dots are usable without glasses, but just a trifle fuzzy. Dialing the brightness down as low as is still visible helps. For me, using a pair of +1 or +1.5 drugstore glasses sharpens things right up.
