This may offend some that already have their Aimpoint money spent, but I like my Holosuns better than my Aimpoints. I have a pair of HS515GM, a HE515GT and a HE530G. Cumulatively many many rounds, some not too gentle handling, and I've yet to have an issue. For me, the (higher end) Holosuns are simply better than the T1/T2. Features such as the shake awake, clear flip covers, ARD, crazy battery life, reticle options, and superior brightness are too hard to ignore.
Multiple online destructive tests have shown them to have more than sufficient toughness to boot. However, if you want to (figuratively) go all out, get one of the grade 5 Titanium models. Holosun's aluminum models use 7075 T6, whereas Aimpoint uses "hard-anodized aluminum alloy," whatever that means. And Holosun's grade 5 Ti models have dramatically superior toughness, fatigue strength, shear modulus, shear strength, tensile strength, etc compared to 7075. Probably overkill, but I got a couple anyway.
