Some of ours broke on non training guns that only shot 100-300 rounds per year. So on average they would have anywhere from 3,000 on up on the round count. Problem was it was hard to estimate when they would break. Some lasted and some did not. There was no guidence from MAJCOM on replacing the locking blocks until they broke. I suggested that we replace them after x number of rounds but anyone in the military knows someone somewhere thinks it's their job to say "NO".
