This video compares a budget $70 Amazon ACOG-style optic against a real $1300 Trijicon ACOG, focusing on practical durability and performance. The budget optic initially holds zero well but suffers from a poor eye box and significant issues with water ingress, leading to internal fogging and a distracting black dot. While it handles light shock testing adequately, its lack of waterproofing makes it unsuitable for duty or harsh conditions, positioning it as a cosmetic or range-fun option rather than a reliable tactical tool.
This video details a durability test for the Lead & Steel Promethean LP1 optic. The testing protocol involves a baseline zero, shock testing with a water bottle, water submersion, and multiple drop tests onto various surfaces. The presenter assesses point-of-impact shift after each stage to determine the optic's robustness. The goal is to provide practical insights into the optic's resilience under stress.
