Neither. Go get a Holosun. Holosun is exponentially more reliable and durable. There is substantial data to support this, including Aaron Cowan’s white paper which indicates reliability on par with the RMR. Holosun 407/507 modes are the same price as the Vortex too.
I’ve seen two Vortex MRDS crap the bed. One was at a pistol course my training group was instructing, where a Venom went down in under a day. My agency (large metro agency) got a Venom for testing and we killed it in a single day as well. The Venom is a wider lens with a smaller dot. Viper is standard width lens with larger dot. They’re likely running the same internal electronics given the price. The Venom and Viper are OE manufactured optics made on contract, and there are several other brands (US Optics, Shield Optics, etc) coming out of the same manufacturer that are running the same electronics and general designs. All of those have a questionable performance record as well. They’re functional for recreational use, but absolutely not an optic I would ever want on a gun I’d want to rely on for my own personal safety.
In contrast, my agency has had zero failures from Holosun MRDS and we have a couple dozen Holosuns out on the street (most common model is the 508T). We have data on a lot of MRDS and the Holosun is one of the top performers we’ve tested and fielded.
