What are you using to shoot your grappler claw up to the pipe? Is it a spring, pneumatic cylinder or combo of the two?

It is a steel compression spring. The trigger is a pneumatic cylinder operating a simple over-center lever.

The dart itself has some bearings that ride the surface of the trigger cam to get a repeatable release.
