Cocking Device
How would I make a spring powered lego gun?

I want an airsoft gun really bad but my dad won’t let my have one because he thinks it is “too violent”, so I’ve been trying to make a powerful lego gun. I would use rubber bands, but they snap too easily, and springs have more potential energy, anyway. The problem with my design is that I can’t find away so that I can cock the gun, and the spring stops once it is pulled back to a certain point. I’ve tried putting up little plungers or studs to block the spring from shooting forward, but then my problem is that for the plunger to go up the cocking device can’t be there. I was thinking of making some sort of one way gear, but that hasn’t been working. Exact plans would by nice, but just a general idea of what to do will help more.
And in case anybody was wondering… *cough cough*
I won’t shoot my eye out.
So any paranoid old moms here
*cough cough*
don’t answer please.

Try searching in google for a lego forum and ask the people there.
