Question about EDC - magazines

Post by bigity »

I have had my CHL for a few months now, and carry all the time. I have owned firearms for most of my life, but I have never carried long term before.

Am I hurting/wearing out my handgun magazines leaving them loaded 24/7, 365 - outside of range time and cleanings after range time?
