Trigger spring(actually just a bent piece of plastic that acts as a spring) broke while shooting and since I never had any springs lying around that would work...I fashioned a "spring" out of a plastic tie. It has just slightly less tension than the original piece so the pull is a bit lighter. 1000 pellets so far and working great. If it ever fails I'll replace it with a light steel coil spring instead but so far so good.

Creative for sure. That's probably a permanent fix too because plastic ties are more of a bendable rubber- type plastic compared to the original spring and it certainly won't ever break with this application. Good job.
