I'm going to add a [k25] spring to my "pull back" PAS. Here is how it's reinforced so far:
-The whole blaster is reinforced with screws.
-The CPVC to plunger rod connection is reinforced with hotglue, epoxy, and screws.
-The plunger head has one layer of felt on it.
-A piece of thick rubber has been added to the back of the brown piece.
-Polycarb trigger with a stronger trigger spring added.
Are there any more reinforcements that I can do to this blaster, to ensure that it won't break after adding a [k25] in there? Or, are any more reinforcements even necessary?

The plunger rod itself needs to be reinforced. It was the one thing that would break in mine which had a stock and [k26] combo.

*ahem* Polycarb trigger?

The tee that your most likely using for the plunger handle should be secured with JBWeld AND a 1/4" bolt/ Locking Nut.

Priming rod will need some work if you don't want it snapping.

If it's pullback, you won't have to do much to reinforce the plunger rod, except possibly at the joint to the plunger head. A properly done pullback PAS should distribute all priming stress laterally along the plunger rod.

I would reinforce where you did the pullback drilling and screwing with brass and/or epoxy putty
