I was wondering about a lighter trigger pull. I've heard of guys who cut springs and love it, and i heard of guys who cut 'em and hate it. Does anyone know the right solution?

Dont cut any of your stock springs .

Find some comparable springs elsewhere and tinker with them to get a "Feel" for what effects altering the spring tensions will have with your marker and then go to town on the replacement springs . The original springs can then always be reinstalled in your marker as you see fit .

ya buy a maddmann spring kit.

if you are talking about the trigger spring, then you don't even need one.  I have a pen spring in there to replace it.

It will work. The sear will reset it for it. There is more play in the trigger, and some people don't like it, but it will work.
