Until recently my S&W Sigma was the under the bed gun, just sat there with one in the chamber at all times, checked on it every once in a while but basically just sat there for the 3AM suprise! The other day I sold it and until I find a cheap replacement my M&P40 is on the overnight watch. Unlike my Sigma, I really like my M&P so my question is, If it sits under my bed almost all the time cocked with one in the hole whats under pressure? I'm assuming the striker spring but not sure, also Is leaving it in that condition all the time an issue? It comes to the range with me so it will get used like twice a month but the rest of the time (for now) it'll just sit ready to go. I don't want to prematurely age it.
