Depends on the number of units exported and how frequently they used it. I think at most it is used by the Special Operations in urban combat, where it will foul up less as compared to jungle or transitionary (rural-to-urban) terrain, or used for base defence.

Like all other weapons, the less it is used, the less likely it is going to foul up. After after firing up to 500+ rounds or being constantly tormented under difficult environmental conditions, the problems will start to show.

It is a weapon built for show, not use. Sometimes I question the use of the 5.56 round in a bullpup weapon, the bullet doesn't kill outright unless it hit critical parts of the body and the hydrostatic shock is overrated, so why the heck should we give it a function to fire it beyond 250m? A normal carbine would suffice, unless the bullet is upscaled, a bullpup would merit nothing more than a futuristic look.

I was wondering why you didn't get a Glock instead.

Most of all, you have to be disciplined and you have to save, even if you hate our current financial system. Because if you don't save, then you're guaranteed to end up with nothing.
