Hi, has anyone upgraded one of these cheapies? Any advice on where to buy parts etc? Just doing it for fun, I have a Diana RWS 350 in .22 but it is a bit clumsy for chickens when I'm already toting my hunting rifle, thought I'd see what I can do with a cheapster. TIA.
 
Try Air Gun Source in Peterborough as he lists some springs and if you measure length and the outside diameter and thickness of the coil strand itself he may be able to come up with something. —Dieseldog!

D&L airguns, check out the utility springs.

polish the tube, cheap airguns are poorly finished, hence the price.
 
I wouldnt get too excited, the size of the air chamber is what dictates if a spring upgrade will improve anything. Those princess auto guns seem on the small side. What can happen to those cheapies is you will just end up slamming the piston into the end of the airchamber making the gun harder to shoot accurately and wearing out parts for not much more if any power increase. Look up the air chamber bolume if you can to compare to other rifles.
