VENOM REFLEX SIGHT Reviews & Ratings

Make your AR, pistol, or shotgun even more poisonous with the Venom Red Dot sight. A 3 MOA dot promotes rapid target acquisition, while providing a precise point of aim—getting shots down range and on target fast. The durable, machined aluminum housing ensures the unit will stand up to whatever you throw at it. High-quality, fully multi-coated lens offers a clean, wide field of view. Our top-load system makes changing the CR 1632 battery a snap and alleviates the need to remove the sight when switching the power source. The power and dot intensity controls are conveniently located on the left side of the unit. Flush 1 MOA windage and elevation adjustments are super sleek and make sighting in a breeze. The Venom comes with a Picatinny mount—weighs 1.6 ounces with mount.

vortex venom on Ruger PCC

Installed this Vortex Venom on my Ruger PCC with the included AR mount. The compact size is perfect on top of the pic rail, the red dot is sharp, and bright. I really enjoyed my time plinking at the range with this combo, very satisfied with my purchase!

Another solid product from Vortex

I use this on an off-set mount as an alternate sight and backup for a scoped rifle. This fits the bill perfectly when transitioning from a few hundred yards where a scope is preferable, to inside about one hundred yards when all you have to do is roll the rifle a bit. Accuracy is really good inside 50 yards on quick shots, and acceptable from 50 to 100 yards (it is a 3 MOA dot after all). Overall fit and function is good and the controls are accessible, but make sure you know how you will mount it before you buy as you could end up blocking the left-side buttons. This certainly does not have some of the "nice" features on the high-end sights of similar design, but for less than half the price I'm not complaining or missing them. I own a dual-illuminated RMR and overall would say this product is just as good as the RMR for most uses. If you need hands-free adjustment to different light conditions, a smaller dot, etc then this is probably not the item for you. However, if you're like me and want a solid red-dot option on a rifle, pistol or shotgun and want to save a little money buy this!
