Pieces Warning: This build may take up a lot of your pieces. It includes a very large amount of Y "hand" connectors a piece count of 24 minimum. I suggest you make sure you have 24, before building. also, a black (or stronger) rod is needed and 8 half orange modded pieces are needed as well. Also, 7 black half hinges are needed (no blue half hinges). 20 blue spacers are recommended.

If you can, please take time building this.

I will look forward to seeing your comments.

Also, be critical, I want to know how to improve more.

[dr. richtofen]

sorry if i'm late, but no/ Ball joint recs have little bump things in them, so they don't work with this

[Mad Chris]

[rheath2]

Huh, His ammo situation is less than ideal right now...in fact IT SUCKS!!!!!!

[charlie-on-our-6]

very nicely done i like the sights

[wandel1]

i wanna make a rifle but i dont have a lot of knex and im in the middle of nowhere so im screwed

[Fred the evil puppet]

Is this a firing gun, and if so, is it bolt action, or a better mechanism.?

[knexjay]

i know how you could make a floating dot! MAGNETISM. it would be hard but you could try it...

[tthomasvd]

or you just use a bit of plastic tape it wif tape to the sides of the red dot and then put a red piece of paper in the middle of it wif glue :)

[knexjay]

that would be easier, LOL

[knex inventor]

That might work but it would bobble around a bit

[tthomasvd]

i tried, if you keep it tighten. Then it wont. But if you dont, then it'l bobble arround

[tthomasvd]

i made a new version of it now its a m4a1 casv wif releaseble mag ( push a button on the gun) and a epic new strong stock *it dosnt shoot anymore but im going to fix that*

[tthomasvd]

I DIT DEFY GRAVITY!!!!! MUHAHA

[tthomasvd]

expensive* or however you have to spell it

[tthomasvd]

why should militia use a acr??? ways more expesive then the ak47 :D

[tthomasvd]

and why does some people have a line trought there name?? you know ---------- trought the name?? barrax has, and some other people to but why?

[tthomasvd]

strange.. like 1 year ago, almost none off the guns had 5* stars but now... even the most horrible guns reach 4* to 4,5* NOT THAT THIS GUN IS HORRIBLE!!!!

[kryten80]

[barrax]

knex.com? ebay? google it ?

[The Awsome J]

This looks Pretty cool Does it shoot Well?

[Blue Mullet]

very nice, It looks really cool! How well does it shoot?

[knex inventor]

Was it me or did he say this was made for people who dont have y connectors. Look at the first picture for magazine assembly?

[PikminRed]

Ugh. I quit building this gun. putting a picture and saying
"Assemble" doesnt help. You need to actually SHOW US HOW TO ASSEMBLE IT!
I Probably would have liked this gun if I knew how to build it
as of now, 0.5 is my rating for you. I cant even build it.

[pure1]

pikmin!!!!

[rec0n]

No, you just suck.

[knex inventor]

did he show a large piece then tell us to put it together or something

[knex inventor]

whoever thinks this model is hard PLZ reply to me =)

[pie25x]

How can I easily cut the orange connectors?
