You can take your ammo out and clean the gun ever so often and shoot the ammo so you put new back in the weapon.

As for as staying cocked all the time I would refer you to the police or military that stay locked and loaded all the time.

I think the locked and loaded posture is not going to hurt your weapon at all but if it concerns you have new springs put in every couple of years or so! Cant hurt it.
