Getting ready for a two gun match this past weekend I noticed on Thursday that something seemed off with my Vortex PST II 1-6 and upon closer inspection, yep the fiber wire for the red dot was detaching from the vertical stadia.
Despite the dot ending up where it's at, the optic was still zeroed and worked perfectly fine otherwise throughout the entire match. I just used the scope with the dot turned off and/or used the piggyback mounted red dot when needed. To Vortex's credit, I emailed them Thursday evening and had an RMA with a shipping label in my inbox Friday morning. I'm not even upset that I'm having this issue, as an adult in the real world I recognize that anything human-made has the potential to break regardless of how much it costs. If someone subscribes to the logic that if someone pays x amount of dollars then that thing should never break has never heard of Range Rover or airplanes.
