Since this is my first fire arm and I have only had it for a week, perhaps you experts can give me your thoughts. When I took the T9 to the range for the first time, I had a hard time loading more than 3 rounds before the spring was so tight that my thumbs were screaming. This evening, I decided to compress those springs for the first time and I was going to load them up with 8 shells each. I got to six in each and my thumbs are too sore to load anymore. Will these loosen up after a while? If I store them with 6 rounds each for a week, then remove and reload, will this help or does it take dozens of cycles before I see any relief? I don't think I am being a wimp, but perhaps my technique is wrong?
