Where can I purchase a magazine spring for my Mossberg 590A1?

I have been wanting to change it because I keep my magazine full and don't want any problems if needed.

1. Mossberg.
2. Brownell's www-brownells.com

Actually, weak magazine springs isn't the problem with shotguns. The real problem is shot shell compression. Plastic shot shells left in the magazine for long periods develope bulges between the metal head, and the shot column.
This is made worse by storing the gun in an upright rack in a bouncing squad car.

Rotate your shells every month or so.

Thanks for the info. I just ordered two from Brownells. I couldn't find the springs that I needed from Wolff. I searched and it appears that they do not carry springs for the Mossberg shotgun.
