Here it is my new, long awaited, (not really) FX-9 Pistol. I know that it is smaller than my other guns but I had to start somewhere. This is my favorite pistol I have made. It has a good range, Hidden storage, and a safety . Now I now that there is really no use for it but the point of it is to make the gun more realistic. I will be making a version 1.3 later. Be sure to watch the video. It shows the secret storage, safety, and how it shoots.
Here are the facts:
Has a 7 round handle fed mag
Has a hidden storage for a sniper round.
Has a good range
Has safety
It is very comfortable

Does it sound good?? Let's start.

Step 1: Part Count

It's terrible when you are almost done with a gun and don't have enough parts. So I added a piece count.

Connectors:
White 12
Yellow 12
Green 8
Red 7
Light Gray 2
Orange 15 ( one needs to have one tab cut off) if you don't the gun will jam more.

Rods:
Black / Gray 1
Yellow 1
Blue 9
White 15
Green 55

Clips:
Gray 13
Blue 4
Tan 10

Odds & Ends:
Ball Joints 5 ( all can be replaced one is on the firing pin and can be a orange connector and the rest can be gray clips. But you will need a rubber band.
Black Hands 16
Rubber bands

Step 2: Ammo Storage

This is going to be the hidden storage.

Pic 1: build 2
Pic 2: build
Pic 3: add white rods
Pic 4: slide over the white rods
Pic 5: add second side
Pic 6: add a black hand to a hinge
Pic 7: add white rod
Pic 8: add hinge

That wasn't that hard
Lets go to the next step

Step 3: Handle

Here is the handle.

Pic 1: build 2 of each
Pic 2: build both. Here is where that cut piece comes it play.
Pic 3: add white rods
Pic 4: add both sides
Pic 5: add the other panels
Pic 6: slant and add black hands
Pic 7: build both
Pic 8: build both
Pic 9: add on each side of the handle
Pic 10: add green connectors

Onto the barrel.

Step 4: Barrel

Okay here are the parts for the barrel

Pic 1: Build both
Pic 2: Build
Pic 3: Build
Pic 4: Build both

Step 5: Check

Okay this is what you should have built.

Step 6: Construct the Barrel

Okay I hope this is not going to be too hard.

Pic 1: build both
Pic 2: add blue rods
Pic 3: add these diffrent parts (don't forget the spacers)
Pic 4: add the second side
Pic 5: add blue rods on the handle
Pic 6: now add the barrel to the handle
Pic 7: now add the third and forth side panels

Great now you are almost done.

Step 7: Put It All Together

We are almost there.

Pic 1: Add the rails
Pic 2: Add the flip top
Pic 3: Build the trigger
Pic 4: add trigger and gray clip.
Pic 5: build both
Pic 6: add ram and rubber bands like so
Pic 7: add tan clips to the blue rods if you want

Step 8: Loading and Firing

Pic 1: Load bullets into the mag like so
Pic 2: add mag pusher and rubber band
Now when you are ready to use slide the orange connector back pull the ram back and pull the trigger.
