I recently acquired a DPMS LR-308. My specific question is this: has anyone heard of any issues with leaving the DPMS mags loaded for long periods of time?

Further, are there any other issues with these magazines I should be aware of?

Finally, I ordered some Magpul .308 PMags for my gun. I'd assume these would have the same feed lip warping issues I've heard about when a dust cover isn't used with the 5.56 PMags. Any input?
