Perhaps this is a newbie question but I didn't give it much thought until recently. Is it a bad idea to keep your magazines loaded all the time? I keep a 45 in one gun safe with the mag inserted but not chambered, an extra fully stacked mag is there as well. Does this wear out the spring...

I know this may sound dumb but I carry my compact XD-9 sometimes in the front at about 1-2 o'clock. Whenever I carry in this position I can't help but sometimes worry about the fact that I have a 147gr HP pointed just inches from an area that I am particularly fond of. My question is this, even...

Sorry for the hypothetical newbie question, but I am new to rifles as all I have ever purchased and shot are shotguns\handguns for HD, shooting enjoyment, and hunting. So to get some knowledge advice I put forth this various question. Considering you are an average joe with the average...
