No more than having magazines stored fully loaded. Everything does wear out over time but as long as the spring isn't over compressed or stretched, it should be fine.

That being said, I do know the military stores their firearms with the bolt and dust cover closed and the hammer up. So, I suppose over a long period of time, it might be easier on the springs to not be compressed for long periods of time.
