Knex G36C - instructions (UPDATE)

Knex G36C - instructions (UPDATE)
«

In the last step there is a different mag that can be use with this gun.

This is my knex G36C. Some people asked me to post instructions for it so here it is. People also asked me to make the range better, and guess wat, I DID! It was very easy: all i had to do was add a blue ring somewhere and make the trigger further bak. It shoots blue rods and i changed the handle and extended the mag. I also changed the stock by making it longer otherwise i wouldnt be able to pull back the firing pin since i put the trigger furthur back. The range of the gun will be effected if 1. you make the gun wrong 2. the elastic band pushing up the mag pusher is too tight 3. the elastic bands pushing the firing pin are not strong enough. So the way u make the gun and what elastic bands you use will effect its range. Onto the good and bad stuff......

Pros: - 40 foot range(that was the minimum i achieved)
- good looking
- i changed the handle and it looks more like the real thing
- comfortable handle
- u can add a foregrip(i didn't make instructions for one)
- has a removable mag(credit to youngcookieboy)
- has a true trigger and trigger guard
- mag holds 19-20 bullets

Cons: - has some cut pieces
- i don't know if iron sights are accurate
- uses a lot of pieces

Well i hope u like it and have fun building it. If u have any questions on the instructions or the gun feel free to ask.

great gun, i modded the trigger and the stock, i couldnt get your trigger mech to stay locked, i got mine to shoot (single gray connector+ white rod+ blue cap connector) very effective, great gun thanks for sharing

do the greens have to be cut in pic 11?
Mar 28, 2012. 11:19 AMkusstemz says:
they do need to be cut for the firing pin to pass by, you can also use some old messed bendable ones, just cut the ends off and pop them in, and use whats left instead of cutting hard rods (you know what i mean) lol

This gun is sweet! I made it and i love it. 5*. I made an accurate ACOG sight and made the handle very strong.

There is a way to build this only using one broken piece.

i finally found a good g36! (well dutchwarlord's is pretty good to)
Jul 10, 2011. 2:45 PMOmega1396 says:
I modified your model a bit. I turned it from a G36C model into a G36K model, in which the K is the longer model. I prefer the K in real life, so I thought I would give it a shot. I love how easy your gun is to modify and tamper with; I extended the barrel and body, giving it a K look accurate to the true size, added a new front and rear sight that nearly match the serious G36 sights (I used a grey-hook thing connector for the rear sight, which is a small circle, and cut up a snowflake connector and paired it with a Y connector for the front post-in-circle sight.), and made other small modifications, e.g., in the stock.

Hope you keep making models as realistic and versatile as this one.
Jul 10, 2011. 2:51 PMOmega1396 says:
Oops, I had a picture to go with that comment, haha. Just imagine your G36C with a longer body in the front by about 4 rows of the snowflake/half circle connectors and a longer "barrel", with the sights I described.
Jul 9, 2011. 5:37 AMKnEx FrEaK 1 says:
gtrain can you make a g36c that uses less knex pieces but is just as good as this one
I dont have enough knex pieces to build it

Apr 20, 2011. 10:18 AMKnEx FrEaK 1 says:

Jun 1, 2011. 9:01 AMjabbathegut1 says:
its meant to be small -_-
dont look at it as a rifle ,more of an smg or crossover of the two
but your entitled to your opinion so yaknoo .
Feb 17, 2011. 11:28 AMSLIMSMURPHY0007 says:

how can u cut the green rods i mean
May 8, 2011. 1:44 PMKnEx FrEaK 1 says:
Its okay aabout the late reply i dont have enough knex to build it anyway but im going to buy more
Apr 20, 2011. 8:22 AMKnEx FrEaK 1 says:
How do you cut the green connectors
Feb 2, 2011. 1:07 AMshoopdawhoop13 says:
I found a way to make the actual G36C sights for this. :D I can't take pictures, but I can describe it. The front sight is a Y connector in front of a snowflake with the entire middle and all connectors but one carved out with wire cutters, making it have that G36 front sight. Back sight is merely a U conncetor turned upside down in the sights. Both together= ultimate sights. :D I may post modifications to this gun later on here.
Dec 23, 2010. 8:46 AMtthomasvd says:
is your caps-lock broke????
Nov 26, 2010. 5:58 AMBlue Mullet says:
Sweet!!! This is probably the best G36c ever! *5!
Sep 30, 2010. 8:29 AMLiquidMalisha says:
THIS IS BULLTURD!! MADE EVERYTHING BUT HANDLE AND MAG! NOT ENOUGH PEICES. X[]. Still shot one bullet upside down and #$#@!% my pants due to precision. Awesome gun. 69*

Jun 22, 2010. 12:11 AMrec0n says:
OMG. this is the best gun iv'e ever made. infinite stars, lol. can I make a review?
Jul 22, 2010. 5:05 PMshoopdawhoop13 says:
I have improved on this model a TON. I use it purely as a model, though. I have made a reflex sight for it, stock supports, a cocking handle(it only turns ambedextrious, it doesn't go back and forth. Too complicated with this models design.), extended and shortened mags, tons. Thanks for this! :D
Jul 19, 2010. 10:25 AMxSpartonx147 says:
hey guys i made this gun and even though my fingers turnes purple from cutting things i decided this gun is rly good 5 stars and i made a ible where i modded the rail system and made attachments this morning
Jul 16, 2010. 10:51 AMxSpartonx147 says:
i cant feel my fingers from the cutting.......lol
Mar 23, 2010. 4:38 PMReiben says:
