The internet loves to bash Olight weapon lights, claiming they explode or fail instantly, while gatekeeping everyone into buying $300 SureFire or Modlite setups. While Olight had a highly publicized, tragic battery issue years ago, their modern rechargeable lights work perfectly fine for 95% of civilian homeowners. Most people hating on them online are just trying to justify why they spent a car payment on a flashlight they only use in their basement.

When designing a combat rifle, is it smarter to build it with loose mechanical tolerances so that dirt, mud, and sand can easily fall out of the system, or tight tolerances that keep debris out in the first place but risk a major jam if anything gets inside?

Some weapons feature a non-reciprocating charging handle that stays completely still when the gun is firing, while others have a reciprocating handle that moves back and forth violently with the bolt; which system do you think is safer for a shooter's hand placement and body mechanics?
