Gentlemen, your thread inspired me to take another stab as resurrecting my second-hand Mav. The kids are both home with the flu, so Mr. Mom had a few minutes to tinker.

I think the spring was just complete worn out from a million hours of play and rough treatment by its previous owner. And the plunger gasket was looking shabby. So I cut down an old Rampage stock spring and threaded it over the Mav spring, gave it a good cleaning, polished up some of the worn spots in the barrel mech, and gave it a complete lube job.

You know, it isn't half bad now. It's not as good as my StrongArm, but I'd take her to a Nerf war for close quarters combat. Thanks guys !
