Your question has too many variables to answer.
One guy who was a famous gun writer at the time, ( Chuck Taylor, I believe). Bought one, and put thousands and thousands of rounds through it. Trying to brake it. Didn't succeed.
To make a long story short. I believe the answer to your question. Is that a G 17, would probably be more durable, than a G 21.
Every year I take them to a GSSF match to have the gunsmith look at them and replace any worn parts which they will do for free and the only thing I've gotten is advise telling me to stop lubricating them so much.
I still have have the Chuck Taylor article Glock Annual 1999. I do not know where it went from there 157000 rounds!
Something I always wondered about, is where all the money came from? For all the 9's, that Taylor shot through the 17. My understanding was, that he's not wealthy. His real day job, was as a SO for Yavapi County AZ.

157,000 rounds is 3,140 boxes of 50. At $8/box (I bought 9mm retail for that price pre-2000) equals about $25,000. If he got wholesale pricing for the ammo, the total cost would even be lower.
