Hey guys I am new to the AR community, so please forgive my dumb questions. I was wondering how long can you store fully loaded pmags before the springs become weak, or something else happens that will affect feeding.

Forever.

Don't forget to put the dust covers on (little snap-on clampy thingies )
That will help keeping the feed lips in shape.

Not needed for that. We have had a PMag loaded without the cover for more than a year with no distoration.

Leaving them loaded is fine.  Compression/decompression cycles due more to fatigue the spring than leaving them stored.  If you can manage to actually wear a spring out, replacements are cheap.
