Clean first...then expect to replace springs...see how springy you are after 35 years

Tube mag spring is your likely culprit...but first, Remove the Spring & clean out the mag tube...
it'll probably help...as NOBODY ever cleans that area out until they have a clog issue...
(or unless they're as OCD as I am...LOL)
