New K'nex ammo!
shoots as accurate as fin ammo and further than oodammo!
i was messing around with several different ideas and came up with my new ammo design
it works amazing with my new rifle ive been experimenting around with and works incredibly well as a group for an amazing shotgun burst
long story short its looking like this shotgun will autoload and shoot over 100ft
its going to pretty much be cheating in a fight
anyway check out my vids here

so it shoots more than one shot at one trigger pull, right? and is the gun semi-auto?, because an auto loader means it loads a round and pulls the pin for u.

says:
auto load meaning the next rounds automatically load into the chamber when the bolt is pulled back i do have ideas on how to make it shoot semi auto as well meaning shoot each time you pull the trigger

His accomplishments aren't easy to see for new Knex gun builders. With his pistol, he understood that Knex guns shoot farther when the ammo is hit rather than pushed. With that, he invented the "bullet lock" that keeps ammo held in the front of the barrel. That was a pretty big step for Knex gun building. All the other little perfections like how to keep the handle from disconnecting also added to the gun's worth.
His srv1 wasn't too much of an innovation, but it was the first high quality slingshot that demonstrated that slingshots can be the most powerful type of Knex gun.
The Turreted Rifle wasn't great because of the turret (we already had Knexsayer). It was the extremely simple design that used a nearly-perfect pin and trigger setup that made it so powerful. He managed to do that while keeping it compact and without using too many pieces. Why do you think I used it for the NAR?

1. I have been on the site for less than a week, so cut me some slack. I actually have something coming up soon.
2. "Innovative"? I don't mean to offend the guy, but here's what I see:
- A block trigger pistol.
- A sniper, but anybody with that many pieces can build a 12 foot long slingshot. That's not very... Innovative... Not to mention he uses modified bullets.
- A turret gun that, while impressive, has been going around for a while.
- A magnum using a unique but not new rail design.
How does he gain fans? Hype. And few people see through it.

I don´t know if you know, but this guy has made the 12th knex gun on this site, and since almost all (good) working knex gun ideas started on instructables: with that pistol he invented the pin-with-rubberbands idea that's used very, very often in a knex gun nowadays
o, and before I forget:
LOOK AT THE DATE INSTRUCTABLES HAVE BEEN POSTED!
the 'block trigger pistol' : Oct 31, 2006
the sniper (sr-v1) : Dec 23, 2007
since knex guns started in the late months of 2006: this is very innovative. a part of the future of knex guns was in his hands.
AND he did a very good job on the further modding of the br8 and tr18.
post an ible yourself first, than i'll see if you're as good and innovative as KILLERK
read and do some research before commenting .

He didn't invent the "pin with rubberbands" idea, that's been around for ages. He just perfected it for single shot pistols.

I never said he wasn't any good. I'm just saying knex has been around since the early nineties, more than a decade before guns on ibles. Again, give me a chance to post something since I have been on the site for a week and can't find a camera, although it is all set up. Notice how I haven't gone around posting a shadow of it on everyone's ibles. I am almost certain knex guns have been around longer than over a decade over the creation of knex guns themselves.

100% true. Knex themselves made instructions for a bendy rod powered launcher. Oodalumps started making guns way before Instructables or Youtube was around. His machine gun has gotten over 1 million views since 2006 when he first posted it. It was a massive leap forward.

Right, thank you. My point here is, that
1. His guns only get the attention they do because he does publicity stunts like this, and
2. K'nex guns have been around since the very first little boy made his very first block trigger pistol Christmas 1993.

No, they get the attention because it's rightfully deserved. They add original and innovative ideas to the knex community, and his first 2 posted guns had the record for farthest shooting gun at the time of posting to add on to all of that (although he beat his own record with the SR-v2). I've seen more posts about the these guns from other users of the community than Killerk himself.

How do you know? You are limiting yourself to instructables. The first thing I did when I was four, when I first discovered knex, was connect a blue rod to a red connector to a grey rod and called it a gun. I made my first true-trigger gun when I was six. It could very well be true, it just wasn't until 2006 that knex guns really picked up online.

1. It is so simple to build a gun that isn't a block trigger, I never hit that stage, I found a simple way to build a realistic trigger. What he made was a block trigger, whatever little gimmicks he had with it weren't exactly "innovative".
Innovative: To invent or begin to apply methods, ideas etc.
- World English Dictionary
Did he invent a new mechanism or design? No, block triggers existed before then, and while his sniper rifle's length is impressive, I argue that with that many pieces such a feat isn't difficult, as at that point you are just making a tension machine. Slingshots have been around for ages.
His guns are good, I never said that they weren't any good, but my main point is he build so much hype and spam with cheesy advertisements and gimmicks like this than posting actual guns.

Ok. Let's create a scenario based on your logic.
Randy Farmer invents the cotton gin, but doesn't bother to tell anyone except his slaves who need to use it, and since nobody believes the slaves, the invention is believed to have not existed since nobody was told about it.
Eli Whitney "invents" the cotton gin a year later, tells people, and even gets a patent. Upon hearing this, Randy Farmer comes out and tells the public he made the same thing a year before, despite the fact that he never told anyone or never got a patent on it. Who's more likely to be believed?
Even more importantly, who was contributing more to the farming community? Eli Whitney obviously, because he was the one making his invention public and sharing it with other people and making other's lives easier. Randy Farmer on the other hand kept it to himself until someone else invented the same thing, and all he did after that was try and take credit for it, which really doesn't accomplish anything.

You are limiting yourself to a single website, and you are not reading AT ALL what I said below this comment. That is a different situation altogether.
Single website? I thought you were talking about people who make knex stuff but don't post it online at all. That's what my scenario is comparing here. Besides that there was no major centralized hub for knexers that let people made knex guns until 2006. I think Sscoasters was here before the knex community on ibles but it only let people make coasters.
Jul 14, 2011. 12:45 PMDB2016
says:
My point was, I was making knex guns since I was four, and thousands of other kids too, but on ONE website over a decade later things started to pick up. In 1998, the first JPEG enabled cameras hit the market. That is probably a big reason why knex guns weren't online before then. I think you are missing my point.
True. My point is that you don't get points for having an invention that nobody knows about.

Right, but I think it's safe to say that if someone patented the smiley emoticon, e.g. : ), everyone would know he didn't make it up, he just went public with it.

says:
He did invent things. Read my comments carefully. You will see that I am talking about the new mechanism he invented: The pin idea, not the block trigger. Because this isn't the 1st gun on the site ut the 12th one, I can't say if he really did invented it himself, but ask to DJradio or some other pro-knexers, they will know. Main thing is, that he had a big input in future knexing. Oh, and about the sniper (SR-v1) you were talking about: Many knexers couldn't make things like that back in 2007/2008. Many could nowadays, but there wasn't barely any knowledge on knex guns and mechanisms back then.

says:
Again, you are limiting yourself to Instructables. Now that that's been said, who are the other first knex gunners? Who's the fifth? Who's the tenth? Who else had good ideas? I AM NOT SAYING KILLERK IS BAD. I am saying his jump from the knex cannon to the block trigger pistol wasn't nearly as great as the jump to true-triggered handle mag guns. Again, a sniper a couple of feet long with the same connector pattern, while new, isn't exactly "innovative", but if it were 6 in. long and got good range, THEN i would be innovative. I'm using extremes, but surely you see my point.

again, do some research dude! you gotta open your eyes to see stats and range. I'll let you do the research yourself now, the only thing I say: the range of the sr-v1 and v2 are not what you expect ;)

Cute. Let's get this straight: What happens to air when you travel really fast? It turns into molasses. Simple physics dictate that a small, lightweight plastic rod could not travel 500 feet, at least, not without some sort of modification: fins. Now, the bullet is more aerodynamic and stable in flight. But now you're launching something that includes foreign objects. When you get to that point, you are creating something outside of knex, and that is like "cheating", whether it's in a war or contest. Not to mention, did anyone consider 500 feet might be an exaggeration? Especially considering that's about 20 times the average knex gun's distance, which usually is 20-30 feet. That's ridiculous, and how did he get so many people to follow his lead? Spam and hype.

if it doesn't hold up or have a place at a war indoor or outdoor u would find me building it
i love building because its fun... i spam to show off my work... i spam to get feedback and learn from others... not to get approval or ratings or any of that
i build for fun as u should too
if you don't like my guns... don't build em... if u want to be popular build guns that are better then my own don't spend hrs complaining... whats the point?

I end up tweaking and modding my own stuff to the point it's almost ridiculous, I wasn't putting you down or anything, I was just saying what I thought about hype and it quickly became bitter, and I'm sorry for that. I don't mind your guns, it's the way you advertise them that makes me cringe.
I really don't like it when I have to talk like this, let's just end it at this, we both heard the others' opinion, so hopefully we understand each other enough to just end it now.

Go into KI chat if you want anything noticed, or if you want anything from the KI team, because it is much easier to get your stuff noticed there, despite the decrease in users.
Actually if you're a known name and/or you have a large subscriber base your stuff will get views by itself.
Creations on KI get more views than on Instructables at a faster rate, but there's little emphasis and little feedback if you aren't as well known.

I've built stuff, I just never thought that a bunch of legos snapped together to shoot stuff were popular online, especially among people in their twenties.

Well, my point still stands, he never made it, he modified it, that's what he does.
What are you referencing at the bottom?

Not really. The TR series was still originally made by him and all the guys at KI inputted into it, he still thinks his original turret is better than the 18 one. He modifies, so what, it's his own gun he's modifying, there's nothing bad about that.
And before you say 'its not his gun', you need to go to knexinnovation.

I don't think you see my point, he modifies heavily upon what other people do, THAT's his innovation, to date he hasn't posted anything that has started a new style EXCEPT the TR series, but I'm not talking about the TR series. My whole point was he spams to get attention, and he builds hype to gain fans. I was never going to bring his guns or legacy or whatever into this.

To an extent, "basic knex cannon" I believe it was called by (your name here). Say he had made his original gun true-triggered, I would respect him more, but he simply added to it. If we had a list of first guns on this site I'd like to see how many of the first guns had similar improvements over the first gun (handle, longer pin, etc.)

Problem? That's like saying every car is a mod of the Benz Motorwagen (the first car)

Well, in a sense, it really is, just updated every year, but the cars made for the people who "just want a car" are like mods of that, so in a sense, yes, to an extent, however.

I never said I don't like what you do. I just never thought to post anything.

... Whatever, you just shouldn't hate on people because you don't like his work and others do. And it's pretty logical I said you haven't built anything. Ofcourse I understand that you made creations with knex, but the fact you never post anything (good) and KK did, I was annoyed by you hating (a bit) on him.

says:
No it's not logical at all that you said I haven't built anything, I haven't POSTED anything. I LOVE how you included the word "good" in parentheses, as if you've built something worth noting. I'm not saying your stuff isn't "good," I'm saying you don't stick out only because you don't build hype like this guy does. You build better guns than him, yet he gets all the attention because he posts 2 short videos with no content to advertise something that might have already been thought up somewhere. I'm not hating on him and I'm not saying he's bad with k'nex, I'm just saying he has nothing that much better in comparison than anybody here.

Dude I just said I understand that you ofcourse have built stuff, but not posted! And if you think killlerk is an average builder, that's ok. But you shouldn't make a big point of it.

Yeah. THAT made sense.
What I'm saying is, he doesn't get fans because he's good, he gets them by building hype and then never posting.

Ohman come on, I'm not hating on you! Yes, ofcourse what I said was not very logical. But I meant the first sentece 'I said you haven't built anything' that you never posted something.
And okay, I see why you don't like him, but there are so many other builders, you shouldn't spend a lot of time to people you don't like - just an advice.

Alright, so now you see my point, and I thank you. I am not hating on him I just don't like how he goes about things is all, and I'm stating my opinion, so yeah. I think we understand each other enough to just end it here?

That's called a repeater. Bolt action, pump action, and lever action firearms are all categorized under repeater. Manually recocked but not manually loaded in the sense of placing a round into the chamber yourself.

KK this was stupid don't post this until you actually show us the ammo.

Just let the man work. God. I mean people actually have lives away from posting knex guns and ammo on instructables.

Can't wait! There hasn't been a reliable shotgun on the site that gets good distance. Be sure to post a picture when it gets close to perfection!

i haven't worked on this project in awhile and it is far from completion but the idea seems solid i have academies coming up in march so if im not done by march its doubtful it will be completed till early summer

Yeah, sorry, I guess I haven't noticed this topic until now. Still, though, it's a neat concept that sounds like it would be useful in a K'nex war. If it isn't too much trouble, would you mind explaining how the gun and concept worked, maybe even post a picture if you still have it built?
