Here is a beta version of a reloadable spring gun. It's still a work in progress but it at least can be reloaded and fire the "ammo".

Instructions:
1) AG6 on (move piston in line with springs)
2) AG4 on (retract piston/load springs)
3) Slider 1 up (move ramp down to load ammo)
4) AG6 off (shoot ammo)
5) AG4 off (extend piston- wait until fully extended)
6) Slider 1 neutral/down
7) Slider 2 up (move next ammo down to ramp)
8) Wait until ammo is on ramp near gun
9) Repeat steps 1-4

Occasionally the springs just move right through the ammo, this is one of the things I am working on. I would love to hear any advice/tips on how to fix this, make the gun more powerful, or any other tips.

    @TestRunner Thanks for the advice, I'll definitely try using springs as ammo. I might also mess around with the interstage method but it doesn't sound like an ideal method
