picture 1: put 5 red connecters on a black/strenthened rod


picture 2,3 and 4: add a yellow connecter just like the red and put 2 red rods on either side, then add 9 yellow connecters through the hole like a skewer arranging them like the picture shows after you have done that add green rods to the yellows and then clip a white connecter on to keep them in place, add 4 more yellows and another green rod to the first one and then add a dark grey connecter then another white connecter

*phew*

It is a good crossbow, but it might help if you had clearer pictures and put all the parts in, instead of "Oh yeah, ad this here". Just a suggestion.

knexpert69 in reply to knexpert69Jan 1, 2008. 1:17 AM
it can shoot strait through a full can of cola .. it was crazy the 1st time i tried it if u want me to post and instructable , just reply t this and i may see because iv never seen another gun that can shoot strait through a full can at 7ft ... i want to see if gorkens sniper rifle cud shoot througha full can all the way with his spec black rod or sumfin but id say that it wud but in his movie he fires it at close range so it might not be as powerful as you think ... i wouldnt know iv never had the pieces to make it but i want to and as usual ... longest comment haha

Gorkemer didn't even have a Crossbow.
bakenbitz in reply to runnJul 30, 2008. 8:58 AM
Yeah he did, he just never posted it. Go look at his youtube account, it has a video of it.

its a very good Instructable very good crossbow but 1 thing they are not called arms they are called limbs
Storm950 in reply to screamboy3000Jul 29, 2008. 10:45 AM
Arms, limbs or bow. Either is correct.

plasmaspy says: Dec 29, 2007. 7:42 AM
ive made this it is really powerful but how do u make it fire sharpened rods?
bruce911 in reply to plasmaspyJan 4, 2008. 4:39 PM
That is what I was wondering because they just slip by the trigger...
da best says: Nov 25, 2007. 12:59 PM
it is well good
tmmdude says: Nov 20, 2007. 10:39 AM
it just won't be a sturdy
tmmdude says: Nov 18, 2007. 12:08 PM
this gun is sweet! loading does take take a while but if you add extra band its worth it. you can also make the stock from gorkems sniper rifle and put it on the back.
flames10391 says: Sep 13, 2007. 12:22 PM
dude i built this and its good but i hate the loading it takes forever

Could u finish your gun plz?
flames10391 in reply to KalphaKSep 18, 2007. 1:06 PM
huh?
KalphaK in reply to flames10391Sep 18, 2007. 3:50 PM
Means loading is quicker. You just pull it back and let the rod rest against that.
flames10391 in reply to KalphaKSep 21, 2007. 12:40 PM

Hey, I built this and now I need help...taking apart. Any tips on taking the arms apart, they are pretty sturdy...stupdi white rods and geometric shapes.
Danny (author) in reply to Alivezombie16Sep 18, 2007. 8:50 AM
erm there is no real way of dismantling it
