Quoting an acquaintance of mine (Alexii) on another board...
"(We) also chanced upon the Glock representative from Hongkong and told him of our collective concerns about their brand. Concerns like breechface failures, the E-series hysteria, and dryfiring. He said that Glock only warrants 40k rounds for their pistols and dryfiring is included (!) It seems he has heard these complaints before as he had ready answers off the top of his head."
Now, isn't 40K cycles a mite too few if you're talking about major structural failure in a full-size firearm approved for LE use? Glocks are common in cycle-hungry competition, yes?
I've used Glock as an example, but I'm not looking to start a Glock-bash.
I'm just trying to get an idea of what an acceptable 'lifespan' --for the sake of definition, the number of cycles before a pistol is expected to sustain wear-damage requiring major repair-- is for most THR'ers and full-size pistol users in general
