Sorry, it was really a two step process. I reinstalled the AR and doubled the spring at the same time. So it went from a stock spring with no AR, to a doubled spring with an AR.

Here's where I was going with that line of thought. The plunger tube in the TA is really thin and I presume somewhat fragile. I didn't want to break it. Removing the AR means the plunger slams into the bottom of the plunger tube with max force. Even with padding, a significantly stronger spring might crack the plunger tube.

So I back tracked. I reinstalled the AR and doubled up the spring. Well, maybe not truly doubled, but increased by at least 70% anyway. You know those old Recon springs - 2.2 kg, if that.

In the end it worked quite nicely. I don't have to worry about the plunger tube, and it gets very acceptable ranges. Not perfect, but quite acceptable.
