Strong and accurate knex gun

Strong and accurate knex gun
This is a strong knex gun. It can shoot anything that fits in the barrel. It uses only basic knex pieces and a good rubber band. If you use blue rods as ammo you will surely get your target. This is my first instructable so be nice.

well,all of you are breaking the "be nice" comment policy,even if it contributes to the mass amount of the same gun,you shouldent critisize them,just leave them alone(im not for block triggers) and the instructable will get less views,you dont need to critisize them. Most of them are knock offs of a good gun,so you have something to be proud of if your a major knex builder. Am i right?

Your being hypocritical, you are saying not to critizize each other while you say block triggers suck. some of the best guns on this site are block triggers, my first block trigger shot about 70ft.

Please think o somthing more complicated and instead of defending ouself try thinking of something new.

yes, but what trainman and many others on this site (some more subtly than others) are trying to say is we are looking for innovation, like a new trigger system or a true semi-auto gun, not raw power, unless on a unprecedented scale,better than what we already have i mean.

First instructable is not an excuse to make a copy or a block trigger. NEW Knex guns, please.
