Question for the masses...
I have a Vortex Viper on my G19 that I shoot outdoors for IDPA and etc. The dot is changing size and getting washed out badly in direct sunlight. Not great for competition. When comparing it directly to a 2MOA Holosun, the 2MOA Holosun was freaking brighter than the 6MOA Vortex! I have always loved Vortex and their customer service in the past (I did reach out) but this may be just design / durability. That then leads to the question...
I now have a slide milled for a custom optic that I'm trying to change brands without dropping $7-800 with the way slides are going right now. I've been told you can't re-mill to a Holosun once cut for the Vortex. Trying to think options:

- Are there any good adapter plates that don't suck from a Vortex to a Holosun (either RMR or Shield cut the C or K)
- Sell / replace my current slide / optic - trying to avoid this because it would have to get re-cut?
- Any economical options I haven't thought of?
