Hey guy's I asked over in the C-Products section but I figured I would probably get a better answer over here, Is there any harm that can come from keeping a couple of these loaded all the time, just incase? I've heard mixed opinions some say it's fine others worry about the spring wearing out. Just thought I would ask.

Thanks

Springs don't wear from constant compression - they wear from repeated compression.

That's probably a Question that's asked often, maybe even Frequently.  

(Look at the FAQ above)

Gee, fellas. Do you guys think its okay to keep all 120 of my mags full all the time?


What about those P mags? Are those any good? I heard you have to use the covers or the feed lips will break and the live round will blow your head clean off. I heard that on another site from a guy who said he was in the speashul forces.

Fancy that it is in the FAQ In my own defense I did use the search feature prior to asking said question and nothing popped up, so i'm sorry for the dreaded frequent question

It's OK, you're not the first or the last.  Just for fun, head to the AR Discussion board and ask "Do I need M4 feedramps?"
