I have an XD 45 and am wondering if keeping it loaded and cocked will weaken the firing pin spring over time. It will be a nightstand house gun. I would rotate the magazines every 6 month or so to let those springs relax but the firing pin spring would be under tension for years. It would be taken to the range maybe once a year to fire then cleaned and put back in the nightstand. My Normal range gun is an XD 9 to keep in practice with cheaper ammo.
Thanks,
