On some guns nowadays I have to wonder of the gun makers are cutting costs by using recycled paperclips to build springs.
We had several Mossberg 500s, as an example of what I am talking about, that were test fired, cleaned, loaded up, sat in a cop car rack for a year, and were then found to have mag springs too weak to feed the last couple of rounds out of the tube. I ended up having to replace every mag spring on every shotgun we had with Wolff mag springs. Problem was solved.
