The catch on the end of the plunger in a StrongArm is kinda fragile compared to other blasters. It's further complicated by an integral hinge and tension spring in the plunger rod, resulting in even less material strength. I've busted a few myself, I know. Super Glue and epoxy are worthless. As the good doctor said on Rigel 4, "She's dead Jim".

But there is light at the end of your tunnel, my friend. OMW makes an awesome Unleashed upgrade. Better spring, new POM plunger and catch, metal trigger with stronger spring, AND a pretty sticker for your lunchbox. Plus you'll have a spare for parts ;-) Are you a fellow Trekkie...
