Got my new Sig. Newbie to semi-pistols. I Bought a box of A-Zoom snap caps. Tried loading a mag and I can barely get them in with all the spring pressure. What can I do. I can't take the gun to the range if I can't reload.

get a speed-loader like the uplula, load the mags and unload them a bunch of times, will free up the spring tension.
Thanks folks. The loader has been ordered. Easy when you know what you're doin'. Duh!!
Stiff is good though, right?
You would say something like that.
Or you could sit infront of the TV tonight with a brewski and just load and unload your mags till you cant feel your thumb anymore...
Constant compressing and uncompressing is what breaks in springs. Leaving a magazine loaded for a long time does not necessarily loosen up the spring.
Leaving them loaded will help establish the initial set point of the springs, though.
If these are sig 10 round cripplemags we're talking about though, they'll probably always be a pain in the ass to load... most cripplemags are bad that way.
