Realistic K'nex mp5 with working magazine and adjustable stock .:unfinished:. by redrum0777
After building and experimenting with many k'nex guns and different styles of triggers and firing mechanisms, i came up with this weapon. I wanted my gun to not only fire well, but also look great. So after downloading a couple of pictures of real mp5's onto my ipod i got to work on my project. The gun features a 25 round bottom loading mag (for white rods), an adjustable stock, a traditional pull back ram with an automatic locking true trigger, and a very comfy grip that was possible thanks to this guy.

While I was at work today I remembered that I had a copy of this gun built at a friends house, so after an insane skating session I showed up at his house and took the gun. Why the stupid story? Well, that means that now I can finish this Instructable!

apples!!!!! says: Aug 9, 2008. 2:30 PM
Yay. Although I already finished it....gave it a curved mag. It's really good! 5*s
redrum0777 (author) says: Aug 9, 2008. 5:06 PM
yeah, but i upgraded it so that its completely jam free and the mag now holds 30 rounds.

Storm950 says: Aug 14, 2008. 4:25 PM
MUST BE POSTED!
apples!!!!! says: Aug 9, 2008. 7:09 PM
Hmmmm...well, my mod made it jam more, but it looks sooooo realistic, so I'm keeping it that way for now. When I made the straight mag, the white rods never left the barrel...like they'd go halfway then stop lol..
knexfan9182 says: Dec 13, 2008. 12:16 PM
i can see why it jams so much
maxoomen says: Apr 9, 2010. 6:38 AM

I like the gun very muth !!!!!!!!!!! Please finish!!!!!!!!
bannana inventor says: Aug 3, 2008. 6:31 PM
This firing mechanism is bound to jam on the first shot. For looks 5.0 (I would try to work out a fake barrel instead of the one your using.) :D
popomaster says: Aug 5, 2008. 8:30 AM
remember though, the magazine kinda overlaps the part where the bullet loads, so it acts like have the barrel as well. the tan connectors are the only nescessary pices for the barrel besides the magazine
bannana inventor says: Aug 6, 2008. 5:26 PM
I kind of get what you're saying but then again I don't.
popomaster says: Aug 7, 2008. 12:44 PM
lol
bannana inventor says: Aug 7, 2008. 1:06 PM
So what are you saying? Ok this is totally off subject but do you have an Ipod Touch?
KingOfSpades says: Aug 31, 2008. 8:00 PM
my pal had an ipod touch. now he has an iphone. ain't he lucky:). to redrum0777, nice gun. please a bit more pics. would like to be able to build
Soopah Steve says: Oct 17, 2008. 8:20 PM
did you know that if you soldered in a microphone and speakers and managed to CRACK the hardware of an itouch it would be the same thing as an Iphone, all it is is that the iphone hardware in the itouch is locked.
TwistedParadox says: Feb 28, 2009. 1:17 PM
An iPhone is just a iPod touch with a phone feature. there is really no point buying an iPhone if you already have an iPod touch aswell as a phone
popomaster says: Aug 7, 2008. 7:01 PM
nope, my friend has one though
redrum0777 (author) says: Aug 3, 2008. 7:15 PM
its actually jam free more than 75% of the time, and its short enough to guide the round straight while minimizing friction
bannana inventor says: Aug 6, 2008. 4:13 PM
My guns are 100% jam free. By the way it's not considered a jam free gun if it jams 25% or less of the time.
