Ive had my g26 for almost 5 years now and everything is completely stock and original, all springs, parts etc. It has probably around 5,000 round count roughly. I am a new dad so range time has been far and few between lately, so the gun has basically sat unfired for around 6 months at least, with the same mag loaded to max. It travels with me every day, and spends long periods in extremely hot humid temperatures.
I know these are the 'lawnmowers' of the pistol world and are reknown for their durability and withstanding 'insane tactical youtube brutality tests', but realistically when should i start to worry about parts fatigue, esp the loaded magazines and the recoil spring? Its difficult right now cause i cant make it to the range and cant do much but sit here and assume/hope it will still be 100% reliable should a situation arise. In yalls experience, should i be worried about function/parts integrity at this point or is it just all in my head?
Thanks for any help!
