K'NEX Repeater RBG

Back in mid November of '07 I was itching to try out at making a rubber band gun out of K'NEX, but I was disappointed with the performance of the designed guns that I came across. So after some tinkering I came up with a design of my own. This firing mechanism is simple and performs great with a variety of rubber band ammunition.

  • Notice
  • Please observe caution when using this rubber band gun mechanism. Parts will fly off if loading rubber bands improperly. Please use sense to match the rubber band size to the mechanism you are building, and please play safely.

This is a semi-automatic rubber band gun with 8 pegs. This design includes a safety for the trigger, and an easy loading system.

6.19.08: These instructions are being updated to feature the barrel and quick stock seen in this design. Check back soon for these updates.

If you have a good supply of Knex, you may want to check out my adaptation of this gun. It does have full instructions, even though the last few pictures are blurry. I've had good comments--and a few criticisms. But it does take a ton of green connectors; I was trying to make it sturdy.

Can I use your trigger mechanism on my new gun. I wasn't gonna ask, but you haven't given the instructions for the stock and barrel
Dec 7, 2007. 10:39 AMadamsdead says:
Why did you do the same thing as bedbugg? Its retarded!!!! Why is everyone creating new accounts == JUST == so the can have a better rating?!!!
Aug 5, 2008. 9:34 PMDJ Radio says:

Dec 17, 2007. 12:56 PMKnexagon says:
He made this instruction first?
Dec 17, 2007. 1:36 PMadamsdead says:
so?
Aug 5, 2008. 9:29 PMDJ Radio says:
this is good, I've added a new stock and bipod, but I do have a complaint this is full auto and is only semi-auto if you have fast fingers (that happened once, the semi-auto) I really liked the safety, it's a nice touch for when you are playing a knex sniper game and you are assaulted from behind and the gun is stolen. the guy will try to use it, but can't pull the trigger. neat prank....
Jul 29, 2008. 9:04 AMhornbadoing says:
