Expert Review Best dot for your buck - Vortex Venom 1x26.5mm Red Dot Sight

So far there isn't anything this little sight can't handle.

I got the 3MOA when it first came out to use as a 45 degree mount sight on my AR, but it ended up spending some time as the primary optic on my 9mm AR pistol.

So when the 6MOA came out, I grabbed one to mount on a pistol.

Same mounting pattern as the FastFires so finding mounts isn't an issue but I really like the QD mount that Vortex sells (made by Samson).

I should just buy a couple of these because I end up moving them around to different guns every couple of months.

They are easy to zero and hold it so far regardless of what I mount them on. Typical of Vortex, you open the box and everything you need is right there in it.

Definitely use the tool in the box to open/change the battery, it will save you a lot of headaches and scratches.

Clean dot, crisp picture, and overall a fairly low profile optic body.

Beats out all competitors at this price point.

Only thing I wish they would improve is to "borrow" the flip up battery cap from the Delta Point but not sure that little bit of convenience is worth however much of a price jump.

I recommend this optic to anyone...AR, .22 pistol, centerfire handgun, you name it.

Besides being a quality optic, it has Vortex standing behind it which really is an unbeatable value.

Nicest people you could hope to meet in this industry and they aren't afraid to show it.
