You would have to purchase new springs....
just take my advice and dont buy a CYMA...
i tihnk you can see through the scope but it doesnt magnify anything.
PM me if you want my KWC...it lasted me about 6 monthsr then the spring in the magazine wouldnt stay down so I got a new one for free last month...

If you want to be serious about it, you will need an AEG. Stick with Tokyo Marui (TM) for that as they are reliable and a great first gun. Just pick a model you like the look of the best as they will all fire about the same FPS and accuracy stock out of the box. You can find and military surplus store for gear. Expect to spend atleast $400 to be in the game. Springers are fun to plink around with though. I have a pair of good ones me and my neighboor have messed around with  They are pretty accurate out to 30 or 40 yards (within a foot) then after that you are guessing where the BB will go because the hopup wears off. Just dont be stupid and play in the streets where people can see you.

classic army > all =)
I'm trying to find a place that is selling a CA M-4 Carbine.
Dude, dont buy a spring gun, like they said it will break within weeks. Get electric. And, don't buy from shortyusa, try to find a online store that is not in the USA. its cheaper to order from a place from Hong Kong, though shipping will cost $60 the rifle itself will be plenty cheaper then a place in the US.
head over to http://www.uncompany.com/. they have everything you could want.

CA is notorious for breakdowns. Alot of online retailers wont even offer a warrantee through them because of it. When they work they are great guns though.
Milla- sweet! I had an AR-15 upgraded to around 400 with a custom RIS system and a full stock to house a big battery. Sold it though
