In what way do you mean "hurts like hell?" If you have a paintball marker and are looking to use it to physically hurt someone, then you need to get rid of it right now, because that isn't what it was made to do. That said, when playing at a field, they make you chronograph your marker to 300fps or less, in which case, a stiffer drive spring wouldn't do anything for you in the long run. Also, if you were to use a paintball marker in any way to hurt someone purposefully, you would be liable for malicious wounding, assault with a deadly weapon, and other misdemeanors and felony charges.

Tippmann has most of the mods listed, also look on PB Nation and other sites to get ideas.

Being a hardass on the field isnt going to get you anywhere. Use a chrono and make sure everyone is in the same velocity range, springs dont matter. Shoot and be shot at. Give bruises and receive them. Don't be a jerk...people like you make paintball look bad.
Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good.

If you want to hurt someone with a paintball gun i'd suggest save the money on the springs and just hit them in the head with it.

Why would you ever want to hurt another player? Have you ever been shot with a paintball at less than 10 feet away? It sucks! It's people like you that make others think the sport of paintball is for punks who like to shoot at cars, people, animals, or whatever the gun wasn't made for. I bet you would be the guy to yell...(Bonus Balls!) as a player is walking off the field after calling him/her self out. Don't do dumb stuff like try to (hurt someone like hell) with your gun! Thats not the point! Not cool dude not cool at all!

Flores, you need to sell your marker and forget about every playing paintball.  You have the wrong mindset for this sport.  Do yourself and everyone else a favor - put yourself in a paintball timeout.  When you think you can play nicely, you can come out of your corner.
