Koosh Vortex Tornado Loading Spring Replacement

Introduction

If your Koosh Vortex Tornado is not shooting as far as you would like, use this guide to replace the loading spring inside of the toy gun. The loading spring is used in the firing mechanism by priming the spring with the priming handle and releasing the spring using the trigger, pushing the projectile out at high speed.

Before using this guide, make sure that you have a replacement spring ready. The resistance of the spring is up to you. You can either replace the spring with the same spring but only newer, or choose to upgrade to a stronger spring that can shoot farther, but it can risk breaking the toy gun.
