Good call.

I actually don't shoot my P365 all that much. my SOP is to clean it at the beginning of each month and then run 2 mags through it for function check. Some months life gets in the way but I'm pretty good about it. that's 240 rounds a year. 1K every 4 years. I would expect parts to start wearing out at no sooner than 5-10K or 20-40 years from how in which case I will probably be dead by then.
 
This is what happens when the supreme court REFUSES to do their job. Absolutely insane that parts are no longer allowed to ship here, we know criminals will never care. I didn't buy anything as I have sources but the average joe is just going to pay more in background checks for simple parts
 
I don't shoot often enough to wear parts out, not for at least 1 to 2 decades. But I did use this as an excuse to upgrade the triggers on several firearms, and even some that I don't own yet.
 
Got a couple Gen3 G19 barrels from GlockStore.

Wife and I are going to switch our G26 carry guns to the G19 next year. It's a peace of mind to keep a spare barrel or two, just in case.

I've made it a habit to stock up on spares for guns all along. I've got multiple BCGs, spare barrel, bolts, screws, buffer springs, buffer tube even, buffer, small roll pins, springs etc for my AR. For my Glock I've got one or more of every internal part, with an emphasis on RSAs, strikers and springs, extractors, etc.

Same for Buckmark.

10/22 I don't have much though... but they generally just don't break, so not worried.

So basically I am all set and have been.

I was proactive because I thought something like this might happen YEARS ago.

Same, saw this coming 20 years ago. It's going to keep getting worse.

If everyone sends us one of each spare part they're purchased we might consider it! 😁

I justify look at it as purchasing items a year in advance to you can amortize the cost accordingly. 👍😎
