Hello all, I work for a mid-sized Police Dept and we are all issued the Glock 23, .40cal. My issue weapon was brand new when I got it, however we do have some examples that are about 8 years old and have an estimated 25,000 rounds through them. Records were kept, and I believe the figure to be accurate to within 1500 rounds or so, give or take. I was paging through maintenance logs and all, and I found that the recoil and trigger springs were replaced about every 3,000 rounds. We are now using Wolff steel guide rods and a recoil spring that is rated about 4lbs heavier than factory spec, also we now use a New York-1 trigger spring. I started here about 8 months ago and thus far have fired exactly 2,300rnds through my Glock. I shoot at least once a week, pending my workload, and so do many of the officers here. Overall, we haven't put an exact "service life" on the Glock 23 yet, since every example we have still functions flawlessly with normal care and spring relacements. Also, aside from general holster wear and such, the frames do not show signs of damage or degredation on a visual level. I was told at one point that any damage to the frames would be remedied by Glock. I guess time will tell.
