Make An SL9 Assualt Rifle Using K'nex

Make An SL9 Assualt Rifle Using K\

Hello k'nex gun community. I have been trying many guns out such as ipod killer's sniper rifle, Kilerk's pistol and faust's AST rifle. I took lots of ideas from those guns and combined them into one to make . The trigger is still being worked on and let me hear your ideas.

Shoots yellow rods 25-35 feet with one rubber band!! I have shot 70 with 3 rubber bands. It is modeled after the Heckler and Koch SL9 assault rifle. This is my first Instructable I have posted so I'm saying the classic " Be Nice." The firing mechanism and other features are mixed from many other guns. Many thanks to Ipod killer, Mepain, perfect duck, killerk, faust and mykhailo.I am not responsible for any injuries, destroyed property or any other bad things. Enjoy and be safe!!!

=)

Hi guys, I'm new to Instructables but not knex guns, i also made an Sl9 rifle, really i didn't use this, but due to lack of materials i had to sacrifice some stuff, so its not yet Instructables worthy, but do you guys want so see it? I still have to work some issues out ( bullets spiral out of the top ten feet in the air, and 3 feet forward, not so intimidating...)
Aug 1, 2008. 9:05 PMOompa-Loompa says:
sounds cool. Maybe you could use that bullet spiral to your advantage. Like if someone is high up behind a ledge so you can't get a direct shot, so you just shoot straight forward, and the bullet pops up and lands on target any way, lol. Unusual scenario, but hey.

blubber, shut up! you come on here and complain about the knex guns... if i was still three, i wouldnt even be able to read the instructions, or interpret them very good. you giving us a bad name. if you dont like the knex guns, then stay away! far away. and dont call them stupid and imature. i agree with knex_owns_you... it is just a hobby! i guess our world is full of morons who dont like something so they have to treat the people who like it like crap. feel free to respond to this, i would love to hear it!
Mar 24, 2008. 8:03 PMblubber says:
