Also, the piece count is a bit off I think.

I love the looks, feel and size of this gun! I built it and I have to say, it's quite an oddly built gun; however it is quite strong. The end of the barrel is quite flimsy though. I was a few pieces short, so I had to modify it a little bit. The internal barrel didn't work very efficiently and the trigger wasn't great. The 'bullets' didn't have enough power behind them to even make it out of the end of the gun. But the looks and feel of the gun make up for it as a model. 3.5/5!

Is the piece count exact? This is my guess: no. But I still want an answer though.

i realise you prolly didnt right on the picture of the real one but that isnt a bayonet mount on real nagants the bayonet goes on the barrel its just a spike(looks alot like a flat head screwdriver)

is it a removable mag or do they drop in the chamber from the top??
(like the real gun)

in the real one, the mag drops in from the top, like those lee-enfields used in the first world war. in this one you just put the rods in thru the bottom.

ehh, its just like a normal knex mag... you push it up from the top..

irish dc 95 says: Aug 1, 2011. 5:30 AM

it actually looks more like an M1 garand without a bolt-action bar

stock is too small

seniorpancakeman says: May 29, 2011. 6:23 AM

weirdest built gun ever.

caned cobra says: Aug 17, 2009. 7:58 PM

what is this

barrax (author) in reply to caned cobraAug 18, 2009. 1:36 AM

this, is the bit of the gun, where the trigger stop the firing pin, making it shootable. its also the bit that connects the handle and stock to the rest of the gun.
