Yes! HK designed that gun with a 25,000 round life span before you need to send it in for an overhaul! They do recommend you replace the recoil spring every 15,000 round though.
I would work on your presentation, and DA first shot till you master it, then work on the transition. If you can get a partner to rack the slide while your using preferred grip and stance even better. If not then you'll have to do it your self while holding the trigger back during the slide rack, this way you using the trigger reset instead of just cocking the piece.
Also 'The Sarge' has given some very sage advice for your firing routine...use it!!
