Get an Uplulu magazine loader. $30 to save a lot of time and your thumbs. Magazines are built to be used hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of times. The springs will be stiff out of the box and should stay that way for a long time. So I call bull on the loading -1. If a magazine won't hold the number it's supposed to, toss it. If a gun won't run with a fully loaded mag, get rid of it. An EDC has to withstand the rigors of daily carry and still be reliable if the need arises, so if there's a part your system that you feel you have to baby, you might want to rethink things.

You can call bull all you want.

I have see plenty of students with new guns and they simply will not run at full capacity until broken in.
I only see this come up with double stack mags.

I didnt say anything about babying it, just to run your equipment so you know it is reliable.
