I recently bought a new pistol that came with a Vortex Viper, which was unfortunately faulty (worked intermittently). I sent it in for a warranty claim and they sent me a new one in a sealed box with accessories.

I don't currently shoot competition, but would like to get into competitive shooting when I eventually relocate. So do I try to sell it for $200 ($175?) and buy a better red dot if I ever need it (Venom?), or do I hoard the one I already have?

This is new territory to me as I only buy, never sell. Oh, I'm also in a commie state.

I would. I have spare optics laying around. Never know when youll accidentally buy a new gun and a spare would come in handy

True. Do you happen to have any vipers? If so, how do you like it compared to the venom? My biggest complaint about the viper is that you have to remove the optic to replace the battery.

No viper red dots, just viper scopes. Dont have to remove the optic to replace a battery on the venom, thats retarded.

Yeah. It does allow you to have the glass lower than the venom, but I'm not fond of it. Looking it up, it should last 150 hours on it's highest setting, or thousands on it's lowest.
