Ok, peppercrotch, pepperatch...what ever the hell it is, the catch spring is to weak to handle the two springs you have on there.

EDIT: nerfer9 beat me to it

The problem is it wont catch

Since you added a spring, and seem to have lost the original catch spring,, I suggest to add another catch spring or replace it with a stronger catch spring.

Is it just me, or does that look like the spring that goes under the rail lock? I'd have to agree with the other two who I realize just beat me to it.

If the problem is that the plunger rod handle won't slide far enough back to cock, remove a spring. (or get 1 strong one, an ace #49 for example) If it goes all the way back but won't catch, add another catch spring.

Does it make a click when you let go of the plunger rod? Like the catch caught, it just let go?

You are correct, that's the N-Strike tactical rail spring.

pepperach: I think you misread a mod write up. I remember reading that someone said he got good results by ADDING the rail spring to the stock catch spring, NOT by replacing.

The problem is that the spring isn't even long enough, that's why you don't here the click, its not even pushing down on the plunger rod. It's impossible for the catch to engage with that spring in it.

Well, judging by the pictures, you also replaced the catch spring with an N-Strike tactical rail spring. Either that or it's a new model.

Well if you didn't put it in and you bought it from the store, we all have to assume it comes that way. But why? Can you take some pictures of it with the plunger head off and such so we can figure it out?
