Default Shield 9mm Magazine Spring

I've read several posts about the folding magazine spring issue, and it's making me a little paranoid! I've got two 8rds & one 7rd magazine. I've only put 120 rds through them, with equal time devoted to each one. That's roughly 40 rds apiece. After reading about the spring issues, I took each one apart, and, so far so good. I guess a regular inspection would be the smart thing to do. How many of you guys or gals have put several hundred rds through the mags, with no issues? Any tips to keep the springs from folding? My Shield is only a couple of weeks old, and I'm thinking that maybe S&W has addressed the problem. Then again, a couple of the posts I read were relatively new.

Thanks
