I bought a package used Glock 19 MOS with suppressor height sights and a Vortex Venom Mini Red Dot and some holsters as a package buy. Good deal.
Went to sight in the Vortex and it was way off. Couldn’t adjust the sights at all. The adjustments were stripped - lateral and horizontals were gone.
So instead of trying to contact the seller I went to Vortex directly with the situation. Not only did they fix it.
They sent me a Brand New one!
I was very upfront that it was used and one of the previous owners had placed the wrong screws to mount the sight which forced the adapter to cant up from the rear causing a tilt. So there was no way anyone could sight this thing in and causing one to over adjust and strip the adjustments.
The price for the package was decent but now I have a totally new Venom and the original price was good just for the Glock 19 let alone all the other stuff.
But I have to say the folks at Vortex really stand by beyond their warranty!
Plus they even sent me a pair of correct screws for my Glock MOS!!

I love hearing stories like this. And yeah, this is what keeps people coming back to companies like Vortex.

Yep, Vortex customer service is great. I had a StrikeFire II with a dot that was starting to get that sunburst look - not crisp at all. They replaced it without hesitation, and I received the new one quickly. I will continue to support them.

One reason why buying used Vortex products isn't a big deal.

I forgot to post this from their service email.

I don't even bother to look at other optics brands aside from Vortex except when I want to be a heavy breather and look at Aimpoint.
