I don't use mine often but got into the habit of checking any body screws etc as I clean after a game, they can work loose occasionally.

I tend to get aliexpress optics a lot in the sort of mid range and Ive not yet had one damaged by being run on a gbbr but that is obviously partly good luck in the qc lottery. The only optic ive had trouble with was an old cmore like this which lost zero a lot and the battery bounced out of place. All of the others I have used have far more solid mounting solutions.

It also depends a lot on the gun. Id feel fairly happy mounting nearly anything on my tokyo marui gbbrs as they have fairly soft impulses overall but Id go for something a bit more solid on my vfc's

I’ve always used Ali express or repo ones. Always held around a good zero. End of the day the zero on a Airsoft gun isn’t going to be perfect.
with regards to them coming loose, I’d check the screws every few months make sure they are tight or use some lock tight on screws you know won’t be coming off in the future

Had something like 10 ACM T1 clones die because of heavier recoil GBBRs?
But you do get what you pay for in that regard.
Recently swapped to using Vector and Vortex because they will honour warranties, so if something does break, I don't need to fret over it. At the point in my life where i'd rather just buy something decent once than buy it cheap repeatedly.
