The gun is either in good working condition or it's not... If it's not, send it back. I think breaking in a gun in is a myth. We're talking about a gun made to shoot 100,000+ rounds. If you could wear down the metal with a hundred rounds you purchased the wrong gun.

If you really must "break" in your gun fill it with glass beed media from a sand blaster and shoot 1,000 rounds. Then it may show some signs of wear and tear.

I was just kidding ^ Don't do that.

Make sure you can shoot it acuratly and that it works. When you feel you can bet your life on your shooting skills with your new gun then go ahead and carry the gun. Your really breaking yourself in... not the gun...
