View Full Version : Shotgun magazine tube
Can any problems arise out of leaving it loaded all the time?
Any danger of the spring becoming weak, not being able to reliably feed the next shell into the chamber?
I keep my 7-round tube full around the clock and was just wondering.

You shouldn't experience any problems leaving it loaded, and as a matter of fact, it will do less harm than loading and unloading it every night/day. I'm going to assume you unload probaby at least once a month for cleaning. You should be ok. If you're not comfortable leaving it fully loaded, put in 6 instead of 7 so the spring isn't fully compressed, but really, you should be ok.

Mine has been loaded for four years now. ;)
Thanks. Just to be safe, I took one round out so now there's 6 rounds in the tube.
