Introduction

This guide will show you how to replace the springs in a Nerf N-Strike Elite Rough Cut 2x4 gun. Nerf guns use springs to power their guns. However, over time, these springs lose power and thus the gun cannot shoot as far or as powerfully. When this happens, the gun can simply not be effective for Nerf fights. However instead of buying a new gun and throwing away the old one you can simply add new springs and get the same if not better performance.
