I have used mine quite a bit and it has stood up quite well.
I do plan on getting a wooden one eventually.
Aside from small scratches no real signs of the use I have put it through.
mine has been knocked against walls. The stock itself has been dropped when I was changing the battery.
Seems pretty durable to me.

mine was durable, and survived about a month of abuse before I could get to a shop to make a wood replacement. I found though, it was much strong in compression/tension as compared to shear stresses.
Basically, I had no problem dropping it (accidentally) vertically onto the stock, from a few feet, and I was able to use the gun+stock to help pull someone up an embankment with no problem. However, the plastic showed signs of bending stress when i accidentally carried the gun crosswise through a doorway and it hung up on the stock.
Overall it should survive normal abuse, but don't expect to be able to use it to hold up a car or for doing pullups holding the barrel and stock.
