I do this at school all the time, freaks people out if you shoot over their head.

This is dangerous. I once had a friend who fires this into one guys eye. Be safe while playing with this as it could hurt.

I like this idea, but it would be nice if there was a way to keep the spring from falling out.

you could tape or glue the spring to the ink cartridge

In the past on pen gun 'ibles and such, I've seen people use bits of paper on the end of the spring to contain it. It works OK, but not great.
