To my knowledge there are no springs that will fly out of the gun, they should all be contained. The hammer block may come loose but that isn't spring loaded and is easily placed back in. Again, though, this is based on my opening of a S&W K-Frame revolver.

Usually a cylinder latch problem is the result of a faulty latch spring. It's a tiny little spring installed under the latch (it's what makes the latch move back and forth, but that's pretty obvious).
Like YNH said, it's at your own risk whenever you take a six-gun apart. Sometimes putting them back together is near impossible without visual instruction or a smith's assistance. Also, depending on if the latch spring needs to be replaced or not, some revolvers have a simple spring that's easily replaceable while others have this weird flattened spring that's a pain and a half to aquire (or at least aquire cheaply). I'm pretty sure that those are only in large frame Colt revolvers though (from my experience at least) so hopefully you won't run into one. If you're bringing it to a gunsmith though, they should be able to fix it fine. Just hope you don't need a flat spring replaced. That will be an extra hassle you don't want.

Yeah, but from experience it's always a good idea to assume anything mechanical you take apart will have a tiny springy thingy that will fly under the hardest thing in the room to move and take precautions to that effect. If you don't, it always will.

Real guns are designed to be stripped when needed, airsoft guns... I don't know what they were thinking with most of them.
