Good video on loading drum mags. I don't know where people get this spring fatigue stuff from. Keeping your mags fully loaded will not wear the spring out. Compressing and decompressing a spring is what will cause it to fatigue over a LONG period of time. Keeping the spring compressed all the time has no effect on spring tension and it won't hurt it even if you kept it loaded for 40 or 50 years. I recently shot some magazines out of my ak's that had been loaded since '93 without any issues. Spring fatigue is a myth that has been passed around for a LONG time. There has been several documented cases by the NRA about 1911 GI mags that had been loaded for over 50 years and were in a basement put away in surplus ammo cans that were fired without any issues at all and they were the GI mags everybody hated. If your going to keep mags loaded, load them to capacity. All in all, great video

On the contrary I bought some mags from a company for my Glock, there spring tension became obsolete after it was stored with just 12 rounds in a 15 capacity mag for about 3 months compared to original Glock mags. After about 5 shots the rest of the rounds were stuck in the mag as if the spring mechanism collapsed. Stick with originals, to many fake competitors!

The 80$ price tag is a good deal to, if you don't mind the promag name. I will say they are much much better built then their poly an mags

Keeping mags loaded over time does not hurt them. Repeatedly loading and unloading is what causes spring fatigue. My grandfather had a few WW1 era 1911 magazines laying around and I asked him about his original 1911 with a magazine loaded with 1917 headstamped 45 ACP and he said his dad (My great grandfather) brought that 1911 back from WW1 along with his issued magazines. Apparently he bought (Hell, he could have just stolen it and they wrote it off as lost in combat) his service pistol after the war. Those magazines were loaded for over 100 years and when I unloaded the one in the gun with the 1917 dated ammo, the spring was just as strong as the ones that had been unloaded.

When I put the drum in, it doesn't latch like a mag, and I can unmount it by just pulling on the drum. I don't get that solid latch like a stock mag. Do you think I have a defective drum , or is this normal?

I’ve seen others test as well as tested several of my mags I’ve left loaded for 5+ years and the springs are still more than enough charged and still function perfectly so the notion that it will ruin the springs keeping them under tension is a bit blown out of proportion. I wouldn’t worry about it too much , sure I Rotate my mags every 6 months or so and I’ve never seen or had any problems. I Alway keep plenty of mags loaded up , and I don’t worry much as people would have you believe if Its forgotten to rotate them often.

How to know exactly the full turns needed is look see how many times the follower revolves in the tracks and prehaps a 1/2 to 3/4 even 1 turn more for proper tention on last round. Do not over tention that spring. Get a dowel to shove each round out of the mag lips like the bolt would as a test to be sure you understand how and if you loaded the mag and tention correctly when learning OR retesting your reload mag skills BEFORE going to the range .

Usually the creep load (which is the kind of load where the material loses strength when it's elastically deformed), won't make your spring wear out. The pressure required is many times more than what the cartridge is going to put on it and it usually happens at much, much higher temperatures than what your magazine is going to be exposed to. Generally springs in magazines also won't suffer from fatigue, the cyclic loading and unloading of the spring. It would take a very large amount of cycles of unloading and loading the magazine, probably many more than you'll ever put on it, before the spring even starts to cause you problems. tl;dr just keep your mags loaded, it'll be fine.
