    I'm curious how many other brands wouldn't survive their tests.

    I agree.

    So, if you have a $1400 rifle and are going to bury it or throw it in the drink make sure you put some tape on the end of the barrel... got it.

    I gotta wonder too ... I expect most AR brands would survive just as well.

    I also didn't like the water and dirt tests because they taped the barrel ... do our troops routinely tape their muzzles? No, I don't think so.

    Toss it in the water for a couple hours, do a quick field strip to make sure there's no water in the gas tube or barrel and THEN fire it (since that's what would REALLY happen in the field). I still expect it would work just fine, the AR system isn't all that complicated.

    The big kudos go to Aimpoint ... I doubt my ACOG would survive as much as that lil Aimpoint did.

    Same thought here, it would be interesting to take a home budget build like mine (del-ton/spikes) and see how it does. Probably about the same. The one idiot even sticks his finger in the muzzle after the helo drop.

    as for the aimpoint, I really dont think my primary arms would have made it past about the first test!
