Then you'll be fine.
In a Glock I have only seen three things go wrong. None are prevalent or happen regularly but I've witnessed a few, enough to say the below.
First-loss of front sight. easy to fix. either carry a spare and extra stake pin or replace with night sights which are metal.
Factory front sight with plastic stake pin, simply pushes in from underneath. .40s throw em.
Trijicon metal sight with screw. This is representative of all AFM sights for Glocks.
Little bit of loctite and the screw and sight aint going anywhere.
Second-trigger return spring breaks. Roundcount or reason is unknown as I've seen new ones snap and old ones snap and both last long time.
Easily fixed with a factory replacement know as a 'New York Trigger'. Instead of a spring it is a metal clip that acts the same. Aprox $5.
Above is factory spring which one hook usually snaps. When this happens the trigger will not automatically pull forward. It will simply stay back and not reset.
Bottom is the 'NY trigger'. Indestructible.
Third-Broken extractor-This was most common on the forty caliber guns, especially the model 23.
Sometimes enough of a portion of the extractor would break and prevent shell ejection sometimes just the lower lip of the extractor would break.
Gun would still function but upon inspection you could see the tip snapped. Get a spare.
With a small pin push you can completely disassemble a Glock quick as well as replace all parts easily in the field.
Get a little bag and buy $50 of assorted spare parts as well as a punch and it will last long enough for your grandkids to enjoy.
Youtube video on diassembly you'll see how simple and genius the design is.
At 3:50 mark you can see the spring referred to above. The Ny trigger simply drops inside and works as a clip instead of spring.
Glock factory disassembly tool. All that is needed.

and after a few clips through it I got a physical pop out of it and the magazine dropped out.
