A local gunsmith, & Glock armorer, recently stated that a Glock pistol in 9mm had a "life expectancy" of about 250,000 rounds before a breakage requiring repair could be anticipated (excluding typical maintenance items such as recoil springs, etc). A similar model Glock pistol in .40 S&W had a life expectancy of 125,000 rounds, while a .357 Sig was at an even further diminshed capacity when compared to the 9mm, at an expected 25,000 rounds

I'd have to see some hard evidence.
Took the words out me mouth. Proof!!!

The 25,000 round seems absolutely absurd wearing out 10 time faster than the 9mm. Poppy Cock I say!
