RMConstruction's Shadow Sniper Rifle

 by RMConstruction
This is my Shadow Sniper-Rifle. I was improving my previous sniper, and i kinda hated the back, so i only kept the barell. I added various other parts including a great ratchet system and foregeip. Gradually, i improved it more and more, and i ended up with this great gun. I call it the "Shadow" sniper rifle because it is still quite accurate in the dark.

PROS
Removable stock
Removable scope
Powerful
Fairly accurate

CONS
If you use the wrong size band, the barell can rip in half



AMMO
Red connector + blue rod
Random connectors, not white. They jam the ratchet!





PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO COMMENT AND RATE!

"It was great for its time" Seriously? You have a very high opinion of yourself...

You are not a Knexer. It was great for its time, yet you come and oppose it with your 'stupidly high' standards. You are not Gtrain, and will never share his knowledge. I would like to end this here. No further commenting from you is required or frankly wanted.

What does this sniper shoot?
RMConstruction (author) in reply to JUmryshMar 16, 2011. 9:13 AM
Connectors. Red connectors with a red rod attached work best.

The gun looks ok but the stock and scope could use work and the design is not new so 4 stars.

hey, nice gun man. just out of curiosity, if it uses a rubberband to launch a projectile, how can it use a removable mag? our any type of mag in the first place?
RMConstruction (author) in reply to knexsniper1Apr 26, 2009. 11:50 AM
There are different types of knex guns. this gun is called a 'sling shot' gun. with sling shot weps, you can't use a mag.

OMG! IT's A RESEMBLANCE TO DSMAN'S CROSSBOW! GASP! I"m NOT BUILDING IT! I'm going to build your minigun. :P
RMConstruction (author) in reply to Liberty PrimeMay 20, 2009. 12:49 PM
no it isnt. his xbow was 5 layers thick, this is 3. ==. but yes, the stock is very similar to his!
AnIIme says: May 14, 2009. 7:44 AM

MIKEHS93 says: Apr 24, 2009. 7:48 AM

RMConstruction (author) in reply to MIKEHS93Apr 15, 2008. 6:58 AM

MIKEHS93 in reply to RMConstructionApr 24, 2009. 11:03 AM
is the rubber band meant to fly off?
RMConstruction (author) in reply to MIKEHS93Apr 25, 2009. 6:33 AM
nope, it should stay connected...

MIKEHS93 says: Apr 24, 2009. 6:39 AM
explain the firing better like the band on the trigger?
ShadowChaosControl says: Jan 4, 2009. 11:07 AM
it looks like the dsman crossbow, minus the bow, which isn't a bad thing, because that's what my sniper is
RMConstruction (author) in reply to ShadowChaosControlJan 5, 2009. 12:51 PM
well, this was designed to be a multi-rifle it. it did have a xbow attatchment, as seen in the pic below.
