I was just wondering how often one should rotate the magazine.
I was taught that you should keep the magazine loaded for a maximum of 30 days. At that time, the magazine should be unloaded and left alone for 30 days. I was taught that this would allow the spring to retain the proper tension.
A friend of mine, however, was trained to unload and swap magazines every 24 hours. Yet another friend of mine was taught to do a six month rotation. One of our local police departments mandates a 90 day rotation.
Is there any guideline for magazine rotation?
