re: #199 Dark_Falcon

Guns do wear out over time, but it depends on how often they are used, just as is true with cars. But guns are often far cheaper to repair than cars, relative to their initial purchase price. Thus a cheap pistol might well be scrapped once it becomes badly worn, while an well-regarded HK rifle might well be given a ‘rebuild’-level overhaul to keep it working.

But if you only use your gun for self defense, chances are you will never use it.
