I've been reworking my trigger on my pt80 lately, but those damn springs they put in there are so annoying. Seems like they are designed to fly out when you open up the gun. This one spring kept either popping out and hitting my fingers (which hurts like a b!tch), or it would go flying off into oblivion, making its best attempt to hit me in the face in the process.

Was on my way to doing that, but I opted for putting a little piece of electric tape in there for the spring to stick to. Didn't work all that well, but it held just long enough for me to put the thing back together.
