+Bow - Homemade Spring-Powered Nerf Rifle

Step 37Step Thirty Seven

Step Thirty Seven
Add your preferred barrel, and your gun is now complete. The process has taken anywhere from 6 to 12 hours from start to finish depending on the tools you were using.

Final Notes:
+ This gun is extremely durable, but in the rare event something does break it's not at all difficult toreplace any of the parts.
+ This gun doens't involve any glue. Hot, cold, or otherwise. So it should be able to take heat, cold, or humidity without any problems.
+ The rubber band on the trigger isn't a vital part and the gun will still function if it were to break. It's only there to improve the feel of the trigger and could just as well be replaced with a short/weak extension spring. I didn't have any on hand.
