You are not supposed to see the red dot if u tilt the weapon even a little bit. Think about it, the dot should point where the barrel is aimed, but it can't be "outside" of the sight...
Aimpoint is wrong now

Its actually quite cool to see those lasers aim at you. Yesterday or so, I was playing on I-don't-know-wich-server, and the guy right next to me was picked off by a SIG sniper, but I could see the laser moving from his chest to his head, and then BAM.
And just now I realize this was quite OT...
Anyway, what exactly do you mean, sorry, I simply don't understand...

predator, he means that when you aim the mp5 with aimpoint you see the aimpoint before you are actually looking trough the aimpoint.
It's an engine flaw IIRC.

1: Aimpoints are not lasers visible to others. It's only a dot in the scope.
2: The dotsight is just a texture on the mp5 model. It's been changed to the proper behavior you are thinking of in rav2.

I'm more concerned with that huge freaking eyesore of an optics-frame you are forced to look at when using the aimpoint. 
Two thumbs-up on the rav2 work again yurch. You truly are the wizard.

Shame you're DAMN WRONG.
A quick trip to aimpoint's website would actually tell you about a little invention they've got that eliminates parallax error, meaning the dot's always visible, and it's always showing the true point of aim. That's real life, anyway.
Only scopes with magnification lose their reticule if you look at them from an improper angle, since they're shifting and bending light. The aimpoint is nothing more than a red dot projected onto a surface inside the scope.

He also says the dot dissapears if you unalign the weapon (i.e. even if the point where the bullet will be landing is still inside the aimpoint).
That's how I read that anyway.
I presume the dot appearing before you properly shoulder the weapon is a side effect of the way Yurch makes the dot point to where the bullets will land.
