My T.A.P (Tactical Assault Pistol) knex gun

This is the first pistol i have designed myself so suggestions would be good. The TAP is a very good pistol with a true trigger. 1 rubber band = about 5 feet in range depending on where you attatch it.

Pros: Sights, good handle, and good range

Cons:Sometimes need to ram ammo down the barrel

Ammo:Blue and Red rods work best

When you put it in, you have to insert the white rod first, then snap it in. you turn it around

Pull back the firing pin, shove your ammo into the front of the barrel, and pull the trigger.

Bit of glare... couldn't really tell what the small part was for awhile

64runners in reply to fortheheckofitMay 29, 2009. 5:58 PM

i agree

Holy crap, how do you put the two halves together?

Koolman2009 (author) in reply to fortheheckofitMay 1, 2009. 8:49 PM

? Which two halves ?

yerjoking says: Apr 29, 2009. 7:48 AM

Not exactly an assault pistol, by todays standards anyway. However, I see you've made a simple trigger, that is new, and caught my eye, how well does it work?

Koolman2009 (author) in reply to yerjokingApr 29, 2009. 6:07 PM

It works really well, im working on an instructable right now on my MRP1 Shark

You're right, PLASTIC sights instead of IRON sights. XD
