Carry a lot/shoot a lot?

[chasdo4]

I am new to guns.  I am enjoying learning how to shoot accurately with the R9.  I have a glock  but to be honesst, I enjoy shooting the R9.  The recoil is not bad at all.  Question:  If I enjoy shooting this, say 100 - 200 rounds per month until I am familiar enough with it can I hurt the pistol?  IS this abusive? Will I damage it in any way?  will I void the warranty? As long as I keep it lubed and change the recoil springsevery 200 rounds, will it last almost indefintely or is there something I am missing?  Thanks for your thoughts.

chasdo4,

I'm another Rohrbaugh Rookie but it seems to me that you are not missing anything.  

If you maintain the pistol well, keeping it clean and well lubed and change out the recoil spring as per factory recommendations you should be able to shoot it a lot and carry it a lot without negative consequences.  

If I recall correctly The Irish Guard recently posted that he has a customer who has over 4000 rounds through his.

Just feed it ammo that it's happy with and ENJOY!

Regards, Lance
