ES13Raven Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Besides not locking the slide back on the last shot, how can you tell if a magazine spring should be replaced? Should they be replaced after a certain number of rounds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rooster Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Less than 1inch sticking out from the bottom of the mag when the base pad is removed. Not locking back on the last round may or may not be from a worn spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBolt Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Not locking back after last round could also be a worn follower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamikaze1a Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 You could also remove the spring and inspect the coils. If I see uneven spacing of the coils, I toss them and install new. Seems to happen on the 10 limit springs more than the hi-cap... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
