Keeping mags loaded or unloaded, do you think it destroys your mags

[Profiteering]

I like to leave all my magazines in the original packaging to avoid wearing out the spring.

As I said useless!

28 rds in a GI mag don't help when feed lip are bent or springs are weak..... Fire fight in the sand box ! Dump the mag and laod another one!
In the sand box if ya had a Pmag its cuz YA BOUGHT IT!

I worked my magazines VERY hard on the last deployment. We are talking thousands of rounds. Never had a ftf and that was with usgi, pmags, and HK mags, at least in the rifle.

Every mag I own is good to go. Each weapon (only one, Mr. Obama and Ms. Feinswein) is ready with a full mag and several fully-loaded companions.

Really! you've actually got ammo to load into your mags. There's a shortage going on in my town.

The trick is to resist the urge to shoot said ammo! I've finally loaded enough to fill all of mine. they will stay that way until things slow down a bit.

Agreed. Been shooting .22lr quite a bit lately.

...some weaker mag designs can tweak the feed lips (GI AR mags have been rumored to have this issue, loading 28 rounds is often used as the fix).

Comrade, In America, you weaken feed lipz by loading flimzy magazine..... In Glorious Russia, feed lipz weaken you!

Every notice how the Russians never complained of weak magazine feed lips?

Just sayin'....

But this way they're worth more money when I decide to sell them.

That's because in Russia AK mags are made out of repurposed T34 tanks instead of aluminum soda cans or pringles lids.
