I had never heard of this till our gunsmith mentioned it to me last year. He said the magazine springs would last longer if they were unloaded and allowed to rest once in a while. He replaced a couple of my magazine springs at the time.
I have been doing that ever since, but I have no idea how long to leave them unloaded or how often to do it. Thoughts?
I also clean my mags from the top/outside but almost never take them apart if they seem to be working properly. Okay?
