This video, featuring a material science engineer, debunks the myth that storing magazines loaded significantly degrades their springs. The engineer explains that magazines are wear items, and practical damage from use, feed lip issues, and follower wear occur long before spring failure. Academic concepts like creep and cyclic fatigue are discussed, concluding that training wear and replacement are far more significant factors than long-term loaded storage.
