I've done away with the spring assembly altogether. The flying spoon is cute, but I don't really want to getting into manufacturing parts that aren't really necessary. I also went a little nuts having to hold it back resetting the thing and the spoons fall off anyways. I contemplated a machined part to hold down the shuttle, but I figured something that small would be too easily lost so I'm going with 3x 6mm pellets. If you're going to blast 200 bbs, who cares about 3 more holding the shuttle down.

I'm not really worried about most users whipping hail mary passes across a field, but I have seen some users hucking them over the temporary walls at TTAC. Officially I'd call that wall hacking since most rooms would have a ceiling. Having a grenade falling from 9' onto my noggin with that metal end down would suck. Not that the rubber bung would be a comfy thing coming down on my head, but it does reduce the impact significantly.

Manufacturing for mass market does entail some crappy compromises. A much broader customer base also entails having to anticipate a certain level of stupidity.
