I appreciate the responses. My question wasn’t posted to be contentious.
I have quite a bit of experience with the USPc/LEM, pushing 15 years. You are correct. They’re bombproof, the exception being the old style firing pin assembly that had a penchant for breakage. My first had a documented 80k+ rounds before it was replaced. It started to eat flatsprings for some unknown reason. Armorer decided it was done. The round count on the second is unknown, but substantial. Not a single issue so far. Unknown count on the POW, but it’s an AB and was purchased new. The FP and FPB have been upgraded.
Yes, I’m trying to alleviate some issues involved with tendonitis, arthritis, and, pushing six decades of body wear and tear. Getting injections of any kind is off the table. I’m trying to find a combination that is close to the heavy spring set up, yet gives me a bit of relief.
I will install the #12 and see how it goes.
I do indeed recall the thread on the P2000 from back when TLG was with us. For whatever reason, I can’t locate it. I did finish the 100+ pages on the “Field Pistol” thread last evening. That was an enjoyable few hours.
Thanks again.
Edit to add: There have been some additions since I started to type. Appreciate the chart. Funny thing is, DA revolver triggers don’t seem to bother me, although maybe the sheer round count isn’t what it is compared to the HK in a training session.
