Airsoft Canada - View Single Post - Name of the long spring found on top of the nozzle in a hi-capa?

Here's the detailled breakdown for all you helpful people :

The Xtreme would only fire 1 BB at a time and I would have to manually re-cock the gun to fire 1 more BB. I saw that the nozzle stayed stuck in the hop-up rubber so that would explain why it doesn't cycle and shoots anyother BB. Yes, lube helped it but I decided to find out why it stayed stuck. Usually springs should eb powerful enough to avoid that no?

I opened the pistol and saw that the long "nozzle return spring" is kinked/bent in the middle (it's kinda lightning shaped when you take it out of the pistol if you see what I mean).

Realizing that this might be a weakness in the Xtreme (with such a high rof it's bound to happen maybe) I wanted to buy 2-3 springs as backups.
