[QUOTE="Jestik, post: 2409324, member: 26367"] Not the first Vortex I have seen mess up. About two years ago I purchased a bunch of surplus AK magazines. They were in rough shape, and I did my best to get them ready to go. All in all I had about 30 magazines, and I went out to Harry's with a friend. We both had AKs, both had upper handguard rails installed (mine was polymer, his was aluminum), and we split the mags between us and start to do ammo dumps to test the magazine. I have a Bushnell TRS-25 on mine and he has a Vortex Red dot on his. Long story very short, at the end of the day his aluminum handguard had acted like a heat sink and cooked his AK. We were firing fast and we did get in trouble for "rapid fire", but we were not going crazy and still his Vortex was toast. My TRS-25 on the other hand was good to go...the polymer handguard on the other hand was completely melted and had to be sent in for replacement, which Mako did without charge. [/QUOTE]
