Is there a moral difference between justice and vengeance/vigilantism, or is one just state endorsed?

Depends on if you find vengeance/vigilantism to be just. A lot of western state have people who in turn hold to some sort of Christian moral, and vengeance/vigilantism has no room in Christian ethics.

Let me answer your question with another; is it moral for me to summarily execute you for a perceived crime I presume you are guilty of, rather than take you to court where your case is analysed and a verdict given based on evidence and rule of law?
