I've used the M120S a couple of times and the guns ended up shooting near 450 fps. This load, coupled with the gear ratio of stock Classic Army gears would be very high for that motor. Higher load = more current required from you battery. It's also good to note that past a certain point, all motors will start to lose efficiency greatly, and they will require huge increases in current for small increases in load.

Put a lighter spring in there and use a DC current clamp to measure current drawn by a motor. Put the fuse back in. If it blows, you know the load is too high. Tinfoil on a fuse is just retarded and dangerous.
