I own a reflex (1st gen.) and love it! The difference between the Reflex and the Reflex2 is mostly in the dot. The Reflex uses a dot (mine is 6moa) where the Reflex 2 uses a 12 moa triangle.(pointing up) I beleive that some of the light transmission qualitites of the 2 were modified also but I am usure of the details. My Reflex came with a polarizing filter that takes care of glare problems that the others were talking about.
The reflex is always "on" and works on the K.I.S.S. principle. It is waterproof and rugged as hell. The Aimpoints are very nice and I am sure that they would serve you well. But you know Murphy's Law. For a combat sight I'd go with the Trijicon. Just my .02.
