 i heard on the internet that you can take a spring out of a clickly pen and replace your trigger spring with it to make the trigger pull alot lighter, so if you guys could give me the low down on this that would be cool

Pretty much all you do is put a clicky pen spring in instead of the trigger return spring. This works but I would reccomend taking the spring out completely. The gun will work the same with just a lighter trigger pull.

Oh and next time try using the search button at the top of the page.

that is the stupidest idea i ever heard... but you can give it a try
NASA and the Americans spent millions of dollars and hundreds of hours to develop a pen that would write in space.....The Russians used a pencil.

Why do you think it is stupid?

It decreases the trigger pull and therefore lets you fire faster. Saying it is stupid makes NO sense. There are no bad effects from this mod.

And dont flame.

I did the clicky upgrade coz I was bored as hell one day and have collected a pile of dead pens (Don't ask why, its just There)

Trigger pull is definately lighter and easier, it does'nt cost anything and if you keep your old trigger spring you can always put it back in if you dont like it...

Just take out the spring, don't replace it, there is no real need for it.
