Any other ideas, given latitude in the design of the projectile?

 It seems that you are looking for a low friction (and thus repeatable) sear mechnism.
This is almost certainly a solved problem.
 Possibly something involving an over-center mechanism and low friction
bearings will be suitable.

So, are you suggesting sticking with the initial compression/extension spring
approach and just "fixing" the release "catch"?
