How long should you keep a loaded magazine stored if don't shoot often?
While cleaning out my Grand Father's foot locker from WW-2 there were 6 loaded 1911 mags that had been placed there at the end of the war and forgotten all these years, they were still as good as the day he put them in that locker!
Depending how many magazines you have you can get a range box that stores 15 loaded magazine. These are plastic but should be OK for range use or in a "bubblegum" scenario.
