A lot
I'm one of those folks that believe, "carried often and shot seldom", is maybe not such a good thing. I feel that the guns I carry often should be shot often too. Maybe even a lot. I feel pretty confident with my 37 airweight, but it is because I shoot it often. It was made in 1968 and has had a fairly rough life until I got it a few years back. I have put a bunch of standard pressure ammo through it with no problems. Still nice and tight, no end shake and perfect timing. No cracks under the barrel. I'd say if it was gonna mess up, it would have. Keep it clean as possible and forget about the round count and shoot it a lot and hone your skills with it, then carry it often. I don't own a safe queen. I shoot my carry guns regularly and carry on. Probably put a coupe of thousand rounds through this since I've had it.
Peace,
Gordon
I did replace the bolt because the thumb piece shaft pulled out and the ejector rod as it was bent a little. Other than that, no problems at all.
