AaaaAAAH... I get it. I read this wrong and had all kinds of things going every which-way.
But yes, bending or modifying a spring (with few exceptions) completely alters the way it bears and transfers load. It's borked.
Also, Airsoft is expensive. Building, modifying, and maintaining guns is expensive. That's why so many experienced players advocate buying in the upper-end and paying for tech work from the get-go. There's definitely a point where you 'save' money by spending it.
Your G36 isn't a total write-off, but it'll take a large amount of capital relative to it's initial cost to get it running properly, and your resale value these days will be what some people would consider offensively low.
Unless you factor upgrade/ repair costs into your purchase price (which often takes you into a higher bracket right there), "run it 'till it breaks" is the prime rule in buying clones.
