Take it to So Go and see if they can fix it for you.  They have a lot of parts on hand. 

You can even keep your old, broken parts.  It's kind of like getting your tonsils removed only without the medical waste.

If there is a spinning sound in the gear box you probably stripped a gear or two. How often do you hold down the trigger and spray bb's?

when that happened to me... the last gear section on the piston broke off... causing it not to engage on the gears, letting em spin freely.

Pistons are even cheaper. Not hard to install either.
