I have a 40 cal with the 15 rounds mags. My question is if i leave them at full load of 15 will it wear out the springs. I was thinking about just leaving 10 rounds in each during storage.
I second that I have a hard time getting that 17th round in my 9mm.Taurus24740cal said:Im hoping to weaken my springs a bit so that final 10th round isnt such a PITA to get in!
Must admit it is very nice.Taurus24740cal said:hey weaponize.. you should move to Cali so you dont need to put a full 17 rounds in your mag! LOL.. jk man! Lucky you!
No, keeping a spring compressed should not weaken it under normal circumstances, unless it is compressed past it's design limit. Temperature changes also should have no effect, unless you put it in the oven or perhaps LN2.Keeping a spring compressed has to weaken it. Temp changes also would effect the spring in a compressed condition.
