OSSR-2

The new acronym that "OSSR" stands for is "Old Skool Slingshot Rifle".

Some background for the gun: Users had plenty of complaints and mods for the original OSSR, and I was having problems of my own, so I decided to remake this with the design changed up and filled up. The mods resulted in almost every flaw in the original OSSR being eliminated. It was so good that I decided to post it.

Anyways, if you have a problem or a mod to add, post it in the comments. Photos and videos of problems and mods are appreciated a lot. Thank you.

EDIT- Video:

This sniper rifle placed 3rd in megametal8's sniper contest. That may not sound like much, but seeing as first and second place were replicas and mine was the only winner that was just made for pure performance, well I'll leave you to judge it at that.

I have knobs on it so I don't feel rods poking my hands.

Yeah I saw, but don't you prefer a 3 layered handle?

I don't.

can it shoot so far as the srv2 ? with the same trigger mech or would the Y connecter break ?

Jul 4, 2010. 3:35 PMbuilder968 says:

I see a build in my future. Looks awesome, but I'm not going to rate until I build. Oh, and what's the range on this?

Jul 4, 2010. 3:42 PM

DJ Radio (author) says:

I don't know the exact range, as I never did any proper tests. I'd say around 70 with 1 band.

Nov 26, 2010. 11:58 PMbuse66 says:

bull, you told me a gun would"nt even go 40 with one rubber band!!!

This is a slingshot. I was talking about guns with firing pins when I said that to you.

Jul 6, 2010. 12:29 PMbuilder968 says:

Cool. I just took apart Seleziona's AA-12, so I'll get started soon. The stock doesn't look that great to me(no offense), so I'll make a different one and post a picture if it's any good.

Jul 6, 2010. 12:44 PM

DJ Radio (author) says:

Whatever.

Jul 6, 2010. 1:50 PMbuilder968 says:

Actually, the stock looks better than I thought. I'll probably keep that, and I might extend the barrel.

Jan 5, 2011. 9:28 PMThe Nomlack says:

Jan 5, 2011. 3:54 PMThe Nomlack says:

Dec 16, 2010. 9:47 AMFred the evil puppet says:

are these instructions, or just pictures? i cannot tell.

Dec 16, 2010. 5:44 PM

DJ Radio (author) says:

Plain ol' pictures. If they were instructions I would have dissected all the layers of the stock.

Nov 26, 2010. 11:55 PMbuse66 says:
