This could be very dangerous too if the spring were to come off and go flying.

I didn't know you could get that much power out of a spring?? Out of curiosity how are you planning to reload the shooter, or is it a one time shoot type of a thing??
As soon as we test our springs, I will capture it on video, and upload it.
I think it should be around the 05/02 - 08/02. (us: 02/05 - 02/08)

Thanks guys.
