I took the gun apart. It was actually pretty clean inside. I'll still take it apart and clean and oil it soon.

I discovered that the inside of my gun was similar but different than the gun that he used for his demostration. My main spring is very different. I also discovered that there's a trick to getting my main spring in/out. You need a small needle or piece of wire or something. I took it apart enough to get new springs in just to see how tough it was. It would probably be easier with his tool and experience, but it wasn't hard. I'm ready to order some springs now.

Ah, and I also discovered that the three screws that hold the coverplate on are all slightly different. They are all almost the same, but not quite. That was valuable info as well.
