Maintenance, Break-In, and Best Practices

Maintain magazines with routine disassembly, spring and follower inspection, and light lubrication only where metal contacts metal. When introducing new magazines, perform a break-in sequence of 100–200 rounds to ensure reliable spring tension and consistent feeding. Use quality magazines pouches sized for compact magazines to prevent damage to the sleeve and keep rounds secure during movement.

Choosing the correct sleeve index (1/2/3) is the simplest upgrade that preserves grip ergonomics while adding capacity. These replacement magazines are a practical, budget-friendly part at $35.99 for shooters who want durable, serviceable components.
