I need a replacement spring for my NF but I don't want to do any reinforcement to the gun. Can some one tell me what type of spring to get.

Thank you.

Try doubling a crossfire spring with your nitefinder spring.

Crap! I thought I had said in my post that I put my NF spring in my LS. That's why I need a new one for it.

Just get an Ace #49 spring, and put it in there. I've had my first NF working for about a year now, and even if something does break, buying a new NF and transferring the spring is cheaper than reinforcing it.

Do I need to reinforce the gun for this spring?

[SHADOW HUNTER ALPHA]

Yes.

For something that actually fits your criteria: try a TTG (the new one that has a plunger system like the NF's) spring. They can get great results.

A section of an AR-15 buffer spring would work without reinforcement. They can be bought here.

just get a spring from the hard ware store, it doesn't have to be the best one in the store but just a trmp. replacement.

Thanks guys but I found a spring. I used a DS spring. The DS spring is a little to small (Width wise) It kept slipping so the catch spring wouldn't work. So I cut out a piece of plastic to fit in the plunger. Then I cut a hole in that piece of plastic and slid it on to the plunger. Now the spring fits perfect, with out the slipping of the spring.
I get over 65' flat range with the stock barrel. I can't wait to put some PETG in to this and see how far it goes.

AT1K springs have amazing results when paired with the original spring.

Mod Man just had a thread in modifications that he has a few extra stock NF springs. (don't know why it was in modifications)

General Cole, did you mean an AirTech 1000 spring? Thats an air gun, just like all of its brothers, the at2k 3k 4k right?

[blister]

No, it's a springer.
