Mkay, sorry, but I still couldn't be bothered to get a full instructable. It's silly though that this is pretty easy for an experienced builder, so I got quite a few pics that should easily help you figure it out. Anyone is allowed to post it without permission as long as they obviously credit me, and a notification would be nice too.

Anyways, I'm warning you now that this gun uses a few broken pieces and has hideous range. You could modify the gun to accept a normal pin instead of the charging handle-like pin I made but I didn't bother trying to myself. The back sight was crudely thrown together as it's too large, as is the front sight really. It lacks a top rail (as if it was useful) but still has a bottom rail and can still use the generic forehandle. Lastly, it lacks a stock. Overall, I'm just hoping someone can build and modify this for me, then post it.

1. Whole gun. Looks purty, dun it?
2. Top of magazine, pointing out broken pieces. The front one is actually clipped down a little. If you really want, you could probably get away without these with some modifications that I didn't want to bother doing.
3. Here's the side ripped open and the handle area.
4. Another side view on the back.
5. A side open view on the front.
6. The inner side layer ripped off revealing the middle layers in the back.
7. And ditto for the front.
8. Finally, the inner and outer right side layers for the back.
9. And for the front.

I'll add notes where necessary.

This is a very great gun. The only problem is that the band makes the pin fly out no matter where i put it. i put the green rod where you suggested it, but it still comes out.

Curses. I lack the skill required. Still a nice replica.

Purty. If I find the time, I might build it.

You need to use a higher resolution camera for the next ible.
Jul 13, 2011. 6:37 AMtytiger33 says:
So the earlier pics were taken with your DSI? That explains the low resolution! But really please use a real camera or the IPhone with some sort of stand or tripod so the picture is less blurry and so we can zoom in to see fine details. If you had used a real camera or a good phone camera we might have been able to build the TBAG.

And I don't mean that yours is a 50*50 bit pic it's just not good enough to make the gun from.
Jul 13, 2011. 8:02 PMtytiger33 says:
I know we aren't doing you a favor by building your creations It's just nice to be able to build them even if the have a flaw. It keeps us tested and on our toes to do so. It's just good practice. But if you made a 50*50 bit picture of a knex gun you don't get enough detail to make it. It's just that simple. And about the piles of stuff I have the same problems with the cleaning but they put it in paper bags but my parents keep the 1000$ DSLR downstairs in a cabinet in the living room. I suppose you have a place where you keep your old game-boys and other electronic you rarely use so just put the camera there when you find it. If not just put the camera on a window sill in your room with the charger or in your closet for storage and put your electronic charging station in your bath room (that's what I do) And by piles do you mean 5 ft mounds or short ones?

if the pin goes into the stock when pulled back, you cant have a folding stock.
Jun 30, 2011. 2:07 PMDJ Radio says:
Maybe make the stock fold only when the pin is not pulled back. When it is the stock is locked and cannot change position.

The range isn't too bad. Average for a Knex SMG.
30-40 ft.
May 30, 2011. 6:20 PMmberg says:
nice!
May 29, 2011. 11:26 AM~KGB~ says:
Whats the range? ill retry it and try to addapt rec0ns folding stock idea, along with a top rail.
May 30, 2011. 11:10 AMTheFoofinator says:
Bad. Though when it is converted to a standard mech,, the new barrel design with y clips is quite efficient. Feel free to make it as it is, but I recommend converting it.
May 30, 2011. 11:18 AM~KGB~ says:
i might acyually =D
May 25, 2011. 12:07 PMapples!!!!! says:

May 23, 2011. 4:14 PMa_person says:
