This is the assault rifle that i made.it looks a bit like an AK47 but its my own. It was originally based on killer~safe crackers monster pistol but i changed it over the coarse of a week and it became this beautiful weapon. It also uses a slightly modded version of his curved mag
Here are the Pros and Cons of the gun

Pros: good range for a mag fed gun (25-50ft depending on rubber bands)
very powerful
SEXY
10 or 12 round magazine

Cons: the bullet spins a bit decreasing its range and accuracy slightly
a little big and heavy (not good for maneuverability in battle)
too sexy to stare at for long periods of time

here is an awesome video made by matsermetsuiker www.instructables.com/id/knex-rifle-6/

um i dont own a rare 1500 dollar carpet... is there another thing i could use in its place?
mikstr2 (author) says: May 19, 2011. 7:02 PM
a potato chip will actually take its place quite nicely, so you can always try that.
sirvyvin says: May 21, 2011. 8:05 PM
okay ill go buy one then thanks :P
Senior Waffleman says: Dec 27, 2010. 11:43 AM

mikstr2 (author) says: Jan 16, 2011. 2:19 PM

Senior Waffleman says: Feb 3, 2011. 8:34 PM

geodez says: May 13, 2011. 5:41 PM
Yes. (1600th comment FTW.)
Senior Waffleman says: Feb 19, 2011. 8:01 PM
All i did was reinforce the crap out of it
mikstr2 (author) says: Feb 6, 2011. 6:20 PM
love the extended barrel on this... i never have enough pieces left over for that
Senior Waffleman says: Feb 6, 2011. 6:46 PM

Senior Waffleman says: Jan 16, 2011. 4:31 PM
Soon, im kinda busy, i do have the pics though, i just need a micro sd card >.< mine got scratched D:
bosj says: Oct 17, 2010. 10:33 AM

slimshaddy says: Mar 26, 2011. 3:20 PM

mikstr2 (author) says: Oct 17, 2010. 2:58 PM

slimshaddy says: Mar 26, 2011. 7:30 AM

I LOVE THIS GUN!
mikstr2 (author) says: Aug 29, 2010. 3:31 PM
did you make it or is it just damn sexy?
joeyay says: Aug 11, 2010. 8:36 PM
nice, i built it, modded the mag and stock and pullback. great gun! your best!
mikstr2 (author) says: Aug 14, 2010. 9:31 PM
thanks, i do think this gun did turn out really well
joeyay says: Aug 11, 2010. 9:12 AM
would it be possible to make the striker mag for this?
mikstr2 (author) says: Aug 11, 2010. 5:32 PM
yep... same size... do it... its better for pieces since you dont have to cut any
Torpe says: Jul 28, 2010. 2:52 PM
Should I build this or the Striker?
mikstr2 (author) says: Jul 31, 2010. 9:05 AM
i would say build this.... its more reliable......
Torpe says: Aug 1, 2010. 9:30 PM
How many green rods does it use? estimate?
mikstr2 (author) says: Aug 2, 2010. 3:34 PM
alot.... 200... more or less.........
Torpe says: Aug 4, 2010. 6:24 PM
Thanks, I have about 350, I can build!!!!!!
DJ Radio says: Mar 18, 2010. 7:32 AM
Why is this in page 1 of the recents?
Torpe says: Jul 28, 2010. 2:51 PM
Maybe he updated it?
dansdoc says: Jul 12, 2010. 11:41 AM
hay i had a late night knex battle i thrashed everyone!!!!!!
mikstr2 (author) says: Jul 12, 2010. 4:49 PM

dansdoc says: Jul 13, 2010. 12:11 AM
no sdly it was with the xm8 fn scar gun but yours is awesome
~Aeronous~ says: Jun 23, 2010. 1:28 AM
OH. MY. CHEESE.
mikstr2 (author) says: Jun 23, 2010. 8:57 AM
what about your cheese???????
~Aeronous~ says: Jun 24, 2010. 2:42 AM
You are a fxcking genius. I didn't want to say God, because I might offend my religious friend.
mikstr2 (author) says: Jun 24, 2010. 8:06 AM
it was actually killer safe crackers idea but i changed it so it didn't have the mag pusher hanging out and i think i was the first to post an ible with the curved mag
~Aeronous~ says: Jun 24, 2010. 11:19 PM
Nah you weren't the first, but you certainly are the best!
Dr.Squirrel says: Mar 16, 2010. 5:17 PM
Hey, on your page it says you have no instuructubles..
mikstr2 (author) says: Mar 16, 2010. 5:56 PM
i know... i took them down
Dr.Squirrel says: Mar 17, 2010. 1:57 PM
Why??? Iwas going to make them!!!
mikstr2 (author) says: Mar 17, 2010. 2:08 PM
ill put this one for now if you havent built it already
Dr.Squirrel says: Apr 8, 2010. 12:27 PM
I've built it, didn't work out, hate the mag system (broken pecies)
mikstr2 (author) says: Apr 8, 2010. 1:50 PM
oh yah... i made a put together a new way of making the top of the mag so it doesnt use any broken pieces but i never got any pics up
Dr.Squirrel says: Apr 8, 2010. 4:48 PM
 Dang..I took it apart for the WW2 Springfield already...
insanecreator92 says: Apr 3, 2010. 10:14 AM
 I find it mildly disturbing that people can find knex guns sexy.
mikstr2 (author) says: Apr 3, 2010. 1:30 PM
hahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.... ok then :(
bigdylan91 says: Mar 18, 2010. 9:39 AM
this looks nothing, not even a little bit like an ak-47
The Jamalam says: Mar 20, 2010. 3:22 AM
Still, it's an incredible gun.
SonicX 22 says: Mar 17, 2010. 7:15 PM
 i built this then remodeled it to look like a Halo Battle Rifle

the reason why i did it to your gun because it has the best firing mech and Mag Chamber (best gun ever)
Dr.Squirrel says: Mar 16, 2010. 5:19 PM
what are the bullets?
mikstr2 (author) says: Mar 16, 2010. 5:57 PM
orange connector, green rod, grey connector put together
Dr.Squirrel says: Mar 16, 2010. 5:06 PM
Scope attachement?
mikstr2 (author) says: Mar 16, 2010. 5:56 PM
put the white rods on the bottom of the scope in the holes of the yellow connectors on the top... you need to either bend it open enough to put in in or break them off on one side... (that paragraph seemed a little... sexual)
Dr.Squirrel says: Mar 15, 2010. 5:37 PM
How does the mag stay in?
mikstr2 (author) says: Mar 15, 2010. 6:24 PM
friction... very simple... the more tape you have on the harder it will be to put in and take out the mag
Dr.Squirrel says: Mar 14, 2010. 1:36 PM
Two ram's?
mikstr2 (author) says: Mar 14, 2010. 2:28 PM
no just one... i had one taken apart so you could see it better
Dr.Squirrel says: Mar 14, 2010. 1:28 PM
Where did get that tubing?
mikstr2 (author) says: Mar 14, 2010. 2:27 PM
online
Dr.Squirrel says: Mar 14, 2010. 1:28 PM
Suscribed just for this one.
mikstr2 (author) says: Mar 14, 2010. 2:26 PM
yay
Dr.Squirrel says: Mar 14, 2010. 1:27 PM

mikstr2 (author) says: Mar 14, 2010. 2:26 PM
yay!
Dr.Squirrel says: Mar 14, 2010. 1:26 PM
Holy crap!! I am so making this!!
SonicX 22 says: Mar 8, 2010. 6:40 PM
 also i died in combat due to staring at my gun XD
mikstr2 (author) says: Mar 8, 2010. 6:44 PM
what does XD mean? i have never been told...
SonicX 22 says: Mar 8, 2010. 9:17 PM
 idk, XD

... ok really i got no idea, i just do it

PS: idk means I dont know (just in case if you didnt know)
mikstr2 (author) says: Mar 9, 2010. 3:23 PM
well i knew what idk means but i chacha'd what it ment and its an emocation just like :) and stuff... XD... look at it sideways

chacha rocks! its 242 242 on your cell phone and all you have to do is text it something and it'll answer for free!.... just do it... but dont ask too difficult or random of questions... AND DONT I MEAN DO NOT ASK WHAT THE DIGITS OF PI IS OR ELSE YOULL NEED A NEW PHONE... XD
SonicX 22 says: Mar 7, 2010. 6:24 PM
im building it since you need to have removable mags (removable mags = faster reloading)
mikstr2 (author) says: Mar 8, 2010. 1:31 PM
my newest one has removable mags but that mode isnt as reliable as this
SonicX 22 says: Mar 8, 2010. 2:39 PM
 i made this and it shoots farther than any gun i've made!
5*
The Jamalam says: Feb 28, 2010. 7:38 AM
Are you missing a white rod on the first panel?
mikstr2 (author) says: Feb 28, 2010. 9:09 AM
apparently yes... hmm i don't know how that happened
kickbottom says: Feb 9, 2010. 1:16 AM
yo this gun is ok!!!!!!!
matsermetsuiker says: Feb 2, 2010. 12:08 PM
 sorry for the bad quality
mikstr2 (author) says: Feb 2, 2010. 12:33 PM

matsermetsuiker says: Feb 3, 2010. 7:28 AM

mikstr2 (author) says: Jan 28, 2010. 1:03 PM
dont kill yourself with it!
Killer~SafeCracker says: Nov 8, 2009. 5:04 PM
It looks really good man. Just to let you know the curved mag is the same one I used in the KSCAR.
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 8, 2009. 5:07 PM
i know and i used your idea and gave you credit for it but didn't i modify it or is it the very same?
Killer~SafeCracker says: Nov 8, 2009. 5:12 PM
Oh, it's no problem man. You did modify it. It's fine :-)
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 8, 2009. 5:17 PM
this might be my only magazine gun because im more into high range high power stuff because its more fun. but i am planning on making a few more instructables
mikstr2 (author) says: Jan 5, 2010. 3:32 PM
errrrr wrong.
Killer~SafeCracker says: Nov 8, 2009. 5:22 PM
Ya, I like high ranges. But I also like innovation. lol
Dr.Squirrel says: Mar 14, 2010. 1:25 PM
High ranges are great, as long as their reliable not innovatove for me
=)+=( = =()
KnexMaster7000 says: Dec 9, 2009. 3:21 PM
 this gun looks great. ill probably build pretty soon
KnexFreek says: Dec 3, 2009. 7:43 PM
 Very nice! ^and 4 stars btw!
Lowney says: Nov 24, 2009. 2:34 PM
Very nice!
snipercrazed says: Nov 16, 2009. 5:31 PM
ahahahaha, f*ck the scope, its a piece of sh*t lol
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 16, 2009. 6:26 PM
i only wrote that because it is completely useless and it doesn't even look good
Senior Waffleman says: Nov 11, 2009. 8:22 PM
damn this consumes alot of the tiny little green rods
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 15, 2009. 6:41 PM
damn, you consume alot of the tiny little cells... lol
Senior Waffleman says: Nov 15, 2009. 6:52 PM
wtf... lol
Senior Waffleman says: Nov 11, 2009. 8:24 PM
especially the mag (straight)
Senior Waffleman says: Nov 11, 2009. 8:53 PM
but i have way more than enough orange connectors
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 12, 2009. 7:14 PM
i have like 100,000,000 green connectors but this used every last one of my orange connectors (including the magazine)
Senior Waffleman says: Nov 13, 2009. 3:17 PM
gimme rods, u get connectors O-o
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 13, 2009. 3:23 PM
do you live in the usa?
Senior Waffleman says: Nov 13, 2009. 7:02 PM
yes, CALI MODESTO
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 13, 2009. 7:11 PM
i dont really think im going to actually do the trade though
Senior Waffleman says: Nov 13, 2009. 8:06 PM
so sad, i have like almost 200 connectors though. lawl
smilee says: Nov 8, 2009. 5:15 PM
Hmm... I will probably build
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 8, 2009. 5:19 PM
COOL DO IT!
smilee says: Nov 9, 2009. 6:25 PM
Okay I built it and is amazing! went 47 feet 7in exactly!
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 10, 2009. 3:46 AM
sweet! are you serious? should i change the range?
smilee says: Nov 10, 2009. 1:31 PM
Adding a rubberband it went 53 feet and 6 in.
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 10, 2009. 1:49 PM
its hard to pull it back though isnt it?
Raz1r Knex Bull3t says: Nov 11, 2009. 10:23 AM
very nice, might build this weekand
smilee says: Nov 10, 2009. 2:14 PM
Not at all.
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 10, 2009. 5:56 PM
wow. i could only get 45 with my surgical tubing, what are you using?
smilee says: Nov 10, 2009. 6:23 PM

4 Random rubberbands
 

smilee says: Nov 8, 2009. 5:21 PM
lol okay! BTW: I think a subsribtion is in order lol
Fred the Penguin says: Nov 9, 2009. 7:50 PM
hmm looks like a z35 and KSCAR had a child

AND THAT CHILD WAS AWSOME!!!
Killer~SafeCracker says: Nov 10, 2009. 3:21 PM
lol
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 10, 2009. 3:58 AM
ya but the baby had a new stock that neither of the parents had.
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 10, 2009. 3:46 AM
lol
Raikou-san says: Nov 8, 2009. 7:35 PM
 Very nice. I'll build if I can find enough pieces. Just by looking at the instructable I can see several mods I'd like to make after/when I build it. 

All in all, it looks awesome. 5 stars.
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 9, 2009. 3:48 AM
like what?
Raikou-san says: Nov 9, 2009. 2:49 PM
 Step 1, Picture 8: Change the green connectors to yellow connectors and connect them with green rods. 

Step 2: I have plans for the handle, I'll show you pics soon.

Step 3: Maybe fill in the stock a bit.

And that's really about it. Though, I'm certain after I actually build it I'll think of a lot more. 

Oh, and by the way, nice bipod. I like how it actually holds up the gun.
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 9, 2009. 2:59 PM
thanks, did you already build the gun? BTW i did some of those things to save pieces and not everyone will have enough yellow connectors to do that
Raikou-san says: Nov 9, 2009. 3:17 PM
 No I haven't build it yet. I will sometime this week, though. I understand not everyone has the pieces, but it's more of an "if you have the pieces for it, do it this way", you know?
Mr. Muggle says: Nov 9, 2009. 4:43 AM
Indeed SEXY lol, nice mag. I think I'll build it after my ball machine.
mikstr2 (author) says: Nov 9, 2009. 12:01 PM
thanks but give credit to killer~safecracker for the idea
Mr. Muggle says: Nov 9, 2009. 4:41 AM
SEXY lol
~KGB~ says: Nov 8, 2009. 11:45 PM
looks great!
