I'm currently trying to squeeze a little more power out of my LnL. I would slap a bungee on there but there just doesn't seem to be a good place to attach one to the plunger. I'm leaning more towards a spring replacement. Tried a NF spring but its too thick and ruins the cocking mech. I was thinking of trying a TTG or Disk Shot maybe even a Recon spring since I've seen they have a smaller OD. Anyone have any luck with these or has other suggestions (easy way to attach a bungee?)?

Try a CF spring, nested inside the original spring. Or sell it to me.

There is a way to band it.



I think you can figure it out from the picture.

I've heard a lot of people claiming upwards of 70' with a chainblazer spring.

I said bungee for a reason not banding. Sorry for not being more specific. I can't use rubber bands because I holster my LnL and the rubber band would just get caught in the fabric and make it hard to draw. Bungees are much smoother and wouldn't have this problem. As for the crossfire spring idea, I think I might try it considering I just opened up a CF the other day. I just hope this isn't a overly ridiculous combo and cause breakage.

I'm using a chainblazer spring right now and seem to be getting about 70'. I think you could get a mini bungee to work smoothly, look at what Darkshrimp did to his LnL in this picture:

Yea I saw that picture in the past but it shows nothing on how it attaches to the actual plunger. I have mine keyring modded and if I were to just put a bungee in the notch on the back it would slide off in 2 seconds. I'd greatly appreciate it if Dark Shrimp could show a pic of the whole thing. I keep on hearing about the chainblazer spring but sadly I do not own one or intend to purchase one just for the spring. Thanks for the info guys.

I used to put bungees on my L'nL and they never slid out of the notch. I stopped doing it though because it decreased the accuracy. My barrels were only 3" though. I don't see how bands would get caught up in your clothing, I've never had that problem. If you're adamant about using a bungee I suggest just sticking it in the notched part. If you've tried and it didn't work I'll shut up, but it never caused a problem for me.

Crossfire springs are shit; I can't see how adding an extremely weak tiny spring to a relatively powerful larger spring is going to do anything but make the gun rattle.

Chainblazer and Manta ray springs are FTW.

Try a ds spring.
