What are the differences in durability between the two other than immersion depth.  Is the ML3 built to a higher shock rating?  Trying to justify the price dif between the two.

Thanks ,

I would say that the C3 would most likely fill all your needs.

Yeah, but what happens if he has to pound tent stakes and has no hammer???




Better go with the ML3, just in case.

One important difference is the C3 does not come with the flip up lens covers or the rubber armor cover. While I could care less about the "rubber" I have to have the flip up caps. Those will run you another $30 to add to the C3.
Obvoiusly there are construction differences that allow the ML3 to be submerged deeper, but whether or not that translates to more durability...?
When you add the cost for flip ups, you get a closer. Besides, I get the feeling that there are plenty of dealers around here with very good prices on ML3s
