Falcon knex assualt rifle

This is my first knex gun i have ever built. I wanted to keep it simple, so you wont find much, if any innovation in this gun.
It features a sturdy, comfortable stock, true trigger, and a non-removable mag.
Here are some good old pros and cons:

Pros

-true trigger
-moderate range(40-50ft)
-moderate rate of fire(1 round per second)
-comfortable
-looks(thats my opinion)
-reliable
-sturdy

cons

-very heavy
-mag is undetatchable
-lack of inovation
-high piece count
-takes forever to load the mag(up to a minute)
-weak point where the stock meets the body

[Skreetsha]

Since i had been off for like half a year, i don't have a bloody clue if i already seen this gun but i oughta say, very good job.

[squarepants]

thanks-its nothing special really-very simple mech-i havnt built anything-off the site or from scratch-in about 6 months either =( -too much sklwork i guess-as well as too much xbox =p

[KnexFreek]

 me gives this gun 5 stars !!!

[squarepants]

 wow thanks! ive really wanted to make another gun for ages-this one is way to bulky and doesnt perform that well-but hardly have any time :( also short of ideas-maybe halo 3 shotgun with pump action?

[Skreetsha]

YEAH! Sipriani V2 will always pwn the V3, weirdly enough... lol. And the R45 is great for beginning builders ;)

[DJ Radio]

Times have changed since your Sipriani v2. That type of gun is less impressive now.

[Skreetsha]

True, sadly enough..

[DJ Radio]

You know, these comments have made me want to post an ible about my guide to success.

[Skreetsha]

I don't think a lot of people will think it's necassery, so i wouldn't do it if i were you :/

[DJ Radio]

I've been getting tons of questions about my success.  I thought I would post it when I retire.

[Skreetsha]

Yeah, i guess so.
If people are asking you to, then do it.
I think you crawled past me on popularity btw.
I'm only getting like 20 comments a week.
When i built the Sip V2, i got three pages of 'em everyday.
Lol.

[DJ Radio]

Nah.  You still have higher ratings and more subs.  You just need to comment more.  I only get tons of comments because I make tons of comments.

check out my vulture...

[squarepants]

 yeah it is pretty cool-your hand machine gun is better though-
i should really post my next instructable-its a dual-shot pistol, with a really strong true trigger and firing rod

[Seleziona]

 ooooooh! sounds cool!

[alfpwns]

id build... but i dont have anywhere near the amount of green rods needes

[squarepants]

hey by the way i'm making a small pistol that you'll probably have enough pieces for. Its actually more powerful, more reliable, and much lighter than this gun. I've just got to work on a few things before i post. it'll be 3 weeks max.

[alfpwns]

BTW 5*s and a fav

[squarepants]

wow thanks a lot! pity you don't have enough pieces though.

[DJ Radio]

This is a pretty good first posted gun. Have you been playing with knex before ibles?

[squarepants]

this really is my first knex gun i have made that has worked- my first designs were way to ambitious so i finally made something that i knew i could build. By the way i made lots of guns on this site before trying anything myself-that helped me to understand basic principles of knex guns and helped me to gain experience.

[DJ Radio]

You could have just said yes.

[squarepants]

yes but i wanted to bore you

[DJ Radio]

lolz.

[knex mad]

that stock is the best stock ive seen looks very comfortable

[DJ Radio]

Dutchj has a more comfy stock on his assault rifle. But this is good too.

[squarepants]

It would be easy to use dutchj's stock on this, because it is the same number of panels wide-in fact id like to see a pic of the gun with dutchj's stock. It might look pretty cool.

[DJ Radio]

You have a link to it in the last step!

[squarepants]

so?

[DJ Radio]

Ohh! I misunderstood your comment. nevermind.

[squarepants]

thanks again =]

[I_am_Canadian]

Looks nice! Good work on the handles.

[DJ Radio]

I really need some of those black wheels for a gun I'm working on.

[squarepants]

what for?

[DJ Radio]

the handle.

[squarepants]

oh

[DJ Radio]

Well nevermind, I found a substitute, only people say it isnt as comfy.
