Does leaving the Glock cocked (trigger set to fire) for long periods of time have any adverse effect, like wearing out a spring or something? -- I read you shouldn't store it cocked, but I "store it" loaded with one in the pipe :~).
I know a guy who's had one in the pipe for years now, no big deal.
I am a little confused by this statement. Has he not fired his Glock in years? If he hasn't fired it in years, how does he know he is OK? And if he has fired it, then he hasnt had one in the pipe for years.
