SemiAuto Magazine repairs if they are unavailable

[Gordie Howe]

I am new to firearms. The problem with semi-auto magazines is the springs wear out with use or storage, correct.

With outrageous prices on magazines now; can semiauto magazine springs be replaced easily and at lower costs or are the springs customized ?

Followers and base plates are also replaceable if they are damaged.

If you crush or dent the magazine body, that means getting a new mag.
