It will hold up however, you must ensure proper installation. I have two one on an HK416 and one on a SBS Benelli m4 both finger tight and ran into lighting issues with the switch and one flew off at the range while firing. After properly tightening everything that screws and adding a little locktight to the rail screw no problems.

I have one mounted on my M1 Super 90, and it has stood up to over 250 slugs and a comparable amount of full power OO buck.
