So are they’re any spring i can buy that will work well without me having to buy extra parts?

No. It sounds like you have a reverse plunger unit. The best mod is a series of printed shims and putting in Retaliator internals.

Can you solder?

@torukmakto4 would have some experience with this, not sure how to tag them on here.

Length? OD?

I use generic 16/13mm alum parts of the desired length and then manually cut in a feed ramp with a tool.

Loss of passion for monetizing their hobby, new hobbies, need to claw back their living situation.

It's kind of random, or it feels like it. The easiest thing to assume is that we'll never get x, whenever x is announced. Helps retain the sanity and serves to delight when it's not the case.

What are we looking at? Is there a build log we can check out somewhere?

Same thing on my end, except parts of the email were mistranslated and the wording screamed Outsourced boilerplate support reply

he just preferred the simpler times when we were all playing with stock blasters

Coop came from a background where he was an integral part of an oldschool modding scene where the FPS COULD end up being as high as 250, and used glue or fishing weight Stefan darts which would definitely be felt on impact. He slowly moved away from that into limited internal mods/cosmetics and eventually became a reviewer of stock products.

These stock products began changing, and I think that and the years of passionate energy for what his younger self enjoyed waned (along with the realities of getting older).

He might come back at some point, but it makes sense to control the formation of a time capsule now (at a relatively high point) - remaining a tribute to a period in your life, rather than run on, emotionally desolate, into eventual irrelevance.

The teal and whiteout ones are calling to me.
