Okay, just to be clear, there's a difference between the original yellow Alpha Trooper, and the blue Elite Alpha Trooper. (the blue EAT and the orange EXDAT are essentially the same blasters in differenct colors, for all you noobies).

5Kg springs for the EAT/EXDAT are sill available from Orange Mod Works. You're S.O.L. for the original yellow Alpha Trooper. Gotta go on eBay and look for those.

But the 5Kg upgrade for the EAT is quite nice. It pretty much doubles the range. There's also an 8Kg spring from the Containment Crew which triples the range, but doesn't include the reinforced backer plate. So beware.

Lookit BS. just make sure you're geting the right spring for the right Alpha Trooper variant. And if you decide the 5Kg is the right one, remove the AR. Totally worth it !

Nerf on brother.
