| They get a LOT of practice at fixing and warrantying their optics. They will take care of you. They have excellent customer service, and they warranty a lot of their products. I finally realized one day that everyone I knew (small circle of half a dozen people) with vortex products had used their warranty for one or more of their optics. I gave all my vortex products away after that. My dad still uses them. They're perfect for his application. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "The trouble with our Liberal friends...is not that they're ignorant, it's just that they know so much that isn't so."

Haha ya I guess it's not the best thing that I have seen quite a few people talk about their CS. I'm trying to use this on a Ruger PCC, so I figure the recoil shouldn't be bad enough to mess up the sight.

Go ahead punk, make my day
| Yeah they'll fix or replace it, no issues.
They replaced a PST 1-6x of mine with faulty illumination (flickering dot). |

Let me ask you a question; as to how you tested it, did you have the red dot scope in an immovable spot, like maybe a padded vise, dot centered on a target stuck up on the wall (a piece of graph paper would be great) and verify that the dot does not appear to move against the graph paper target?
It was aimed at a white jar with a horizontal blue stripe. When I set it on the counter and looked through, the dot was touching the bottom of the blue stripe. Each click is supposed to move it slightly I believe and I turned the dial a few full rotations and the dot was still touching the bottom of the blue line.

If I were you I’d mount it. Shoot it. Try to adjust it before contacting them. Verify your problem actually exists in reality not theory. Good luck!
I put it on my Ruger PCC and aimed right in the gut to see where it'd hit, and it hit the top of the head at about 10 yards, so about 2 feet high... So it's way off and my adjustment dials or knobs don't appear to move the dot. Going to give them a call tomorrow and see what happens.

A lot. On various forums I here at a ratio of 5 to 1 about people who has used the Vortex warranty.
