The results show the optic maintained its zero throughout the abuse, highlighting its robust construction and value. The instructor emphasizes the direct-mount advantage for Glock MOS systems.

This guide details a series of extreme durability tests performed on the Springfield Echelon pistol, as demonstrated by Honest Outlaw. The tests include dragging the firearm behind a vehicle and submerging it in a pond, followed by immediate firing to assess its resilience and functionality under harsh conditions. The video highlights the performance of the Trijicon RCR optic and Surefire X300 light during these trials.

This video details a torture test on a red dot optic mounted to a Girsan Witness 2311 Match X. The host, identified as a knowledgeable practitioner from Civilian Tactical, tests both manual racking and aggressive 'smash racking' against a truck bumper. The results indicate that while manual manipulation of the optic is safe for maintaining zero, aggressive impact racking can cause a significant shift in point of impact. Proper torque specification (15 inch-pounds) was verified using a Neiko torque driver.
