Just a Thought

If a shooter is firing say, 500 rounds of 9mm a month at the range, is there a barrel life span where you need to replace it?

When you can demonstrate it is the gun and not you doing the missing.

I sorta remember hearing about HP rifle that at 5000 rounds you need to think (maybe) about it.

9mm I gotta think is WAAAAYYYY up there. (40- 50 thousand??)

You hear about barrels with 20-50000 through them all the time.

The question is, do you shoot well enough to be able to notice declining accuracy due to the barrel?

If its a Glock,.... Hawkfish will be posting shortly,... However, many on this forum who shoot in competition, or range time to the max, will attest to thousands and thousands of rounds through a barrel.

My personal experience, is my grandfather's 1891 Argentine Mauser, there is no way to calculate how many thousands of rounds that have been fired before I have shot an additional 1000 through it.  BUT it shoots as good as I can aim, and has never let me down.

9mm, you should have no issues for a long, long, time, and be a helluva shot!
