That's a good one. I've replaced hand spring with the large flat curling type bobbie pins. On some of the early replicas, the stuff was actually better metal than the original. The trick is being able to get it fastened into the hand slot without busting the hand. I've used paper clips for trigger=bolt springs too. Not very well tempered and tend more to bend than spring but they can work in a pinch.
