I like to leave a loaded AK-47 in my gun safe just in case aliens come for me while I'm asleep. Naturally, the saftey is on and the chamber is still empty. (Just for saftey).

Is there any danger from a reliability standpoint of keeping the mags loaded for extended periods of time?

no.

I had a couple mags that were loaded for like a year plus and operated just fine :laughing:

No, the unloading and loading is what wears them out, leaving them loaded will not harm them.

Sounds good, thanks.
