The Aimpoint Micro T-1 is cut to the Aimpoint Micro footprint. To put it on a Picatinny rail you fit a Aimpoint Micro-pattern Picatinny mount: the mount carries the Aimpoint Micro pattern on its top and clamps the rail below, so the sight screws down to the pattern it was made for.

A mount cut for a different footprint will not take the Aimpoint Micro T-1. Match the mount to the Aimpoint Micro pattern, and pick the mount height for the cowitness or heads-up hold you want on the rifle or carbine.
