Step 8: Our choices

These are the choices made by the collaborators. Post your choices if you wish but they will not be put up here.

Let's conclude this ible by telling you what guns we'd use and why we'd choose them.  But make your own choices, you don't have to use our options, try your own style!

Notice how everyone so far has picked at least one turret gun and at least 1 oodammo pistol. These types of guns have been proven to work at knex wars, that's why they are picked. ____________________________________________________________________________
Logic boy:
Primary 1  - Gen 2. HAWC bow
Reasons - compact, durable, easy to use, better range and reliability than the original L bow, plus mods allow it to be fired at a similat rate to the ZKAR, if inaccurately.
Primary 2 - difficult choice, either a ZKAR or TR18, depending on the battlefield.
Secondary 1  - Single shot pistol.
Reasons - Awesome range and power,  easy to whip out and fire, no need to reload a mag, good for assassinations.
Secondary 2 - my mini oodammo pistol
Reasons - just because it can fit into my pocket and it has decent power for its size.
___________________________________________________________________________
TheDunkis:
Primary A - BAW www.instructables.com/id/TheDunkis-Basic-Assault-Weapon/
Reason- Overall just a very simple and reliable gun. It has enough range for small indoor wars. The removable magazines gives it a nice advantage over most other turret guns.
Primary B - Zak's Turret Bow or the like (not posted)
Reason- If I really needed the extra range then I guess this would be my next choice. It simply has the range to beat the BR series which I would suspect to be the most popular choice.
Secondary A - Silent Pistol (not posted)
Reason- It was simply a modified OodAst3 pistol that was designed to fire black/clear rods. The result was a highly accurate, somewhat ranged, and pretty silent gun. Seeing how reloads wouldn't be a problem with the BAW I'd use this on unsuspecting targets for an small element of stealth if needed.
Secondary B - Oodassault Pistol V3.6
Reason- Higher cap magazine than the MeZak or Jackal v4 (12 max, compared to 8 for MeZak and Jackal v4), faster mass reloading via clips than the EAP and Hell Slayer, and still just as reliable as the above simply makes it the best in my mind.
___________________________________________________________________________
Killer~SafeCraker:
Primary A - TR18
Reason- This is a great gun over all. It has a high ROF and a large mag capacity.
Primary B - TR8 (no official instructions for the turret, but it is easy enough)
Reason- This is almost the same as the TR18 but it's smaller.
Secondary A - TJOS
Reason- It's a good powerful gun that has a quick reload.
Secondary B - EAP
Reason- It's a powerful gun that has a large mag capacity and can also use clips for fast loading.

DJ Radio:
Primary A : ZKAR v2 (STOP EDITING MY STUFF JAMALAM)
This gun has insane ROF (It literally sounds like a train in Zak's videos), so it's good for CQC combat, which is my style in a war.
Primary B : Untangle
This thing is the most powerful gun I have EVER built.  The custom ironsights I made for it plus the range and ammo it uses makes it an excellent sniper weapon.
Secondary A : Jackal v4 (up yours Jamalam, stop editing my stuff.)
Has removable clips for >5 second reload times, and good power and range
Secondary B : TR pistol thingy (not posted)
It has the same power and performance as the TR, but get this: it's smaller .  Ain't that a *****?
___________________________________________________________________________
Hiydudez:
Primary A- TR18
The TR18 has awesome range and power, aswell as a high capacity magazine  and a high ROF and a reliable trigger and turret.
Primary B- K'nexsayer
Awesome range, awesome power, awesome design, awesome pump, awesome trigger... painful ownage! :-)
Secondary A- TJOS
This pistol has a fairly nice range, and for a very small gun it shoots quite far and packs a punch, also has quick reloading times. 
Secondary B- Jackal v4
Strong design, reliable trigger, awesome range. Also features removable mags with safety so you can carry the mags around for a quick reload when under attack without worrying about ammo spilling out.

Silentassasin21:
Primary A- Knexsayer
Yes its a piece hog but its powerful at the same time of being versitile(Meaning: it can be used in multiple places for long to medium range)
Primary B -The Untangle
All im going to say is that it can kill someone
Secondary A- MeZak
Powerful exellent range and accuracy with ease of loading with bakenbitz stripper clips
Secondary B -The Desperodo
All around versitile awesome pistol that gets killer range for 3 #64s

Primary A: I_am_canadian's Heavy cannon V5 (Handheld)-
Because of the long range and moddabble ammo

Primary B: Dual mezak-
Because the ram rods cam hook eachother and you can then load em and shoot em!!!

Secondary A: My modded meZAK with removable clips-
Because i can then fast reload and it is pretty powerfull for its size

Secondary B: The break action shell ejecting double shooting shotgun thingy-
Nuff said

instruct39 says: Jul 29, 2011. 7:29 PM
Primary A- ZKAR v2 or BAW
i like the charging handle on the zkar v2 but the baw has removable mags

Primary B- any type of tr8
pretty much anything with a turret on the end of it is a good gun

Secondary 1- KLS v2 or BSW
BSW has better ammo for a war but the kls v2 is semi-auto with removable mags

secondary 2- TJOS or some other oodamo pistol
tjos has removable mags witch makes it better than most oodamo pistols, any other oodamo pistol would be sufficiant though

Where can I find your "My Flak" and the "SlamFire"?
geodez in reply to tytiger33Feb 10, 2011. 4:27 PM
My Flak is a compact shotgun I built, it is not posted but it worked similarly to the (now deleted) Oompa's Flak. The Slamfire is a compact oodammo pistol that is posted somewhere on Instructables.
tytiger33 in reply to geodezFeb 11, 2011. 5:35 AM
Nope not there either.
geodez in reply to tytiger33Feb 11, 2011. 5:06 PM

Primary B: Hellslayer, completely amazing gun, shoots oodammo, and it's just the best.
Secondary A: Sipriani rifle V3, it's a slingshot, gets good range, it's good everything except for the ROF.
Secondary B: TBOS, pretty much as amazing as the hellslayer! It's small, gets good range, and is very comfy..... I like it!

Seleziona in reply to KnexFreekJan 23, 2010. 10:06 AM
? I don't understand. What does your gun do? It doesn't just tell on the picture!
KnexFreek in reply to SelezionaJan 23, 2010. 2:07 PM
 it has 2 rams, 2 connected  triggers that you can pull separately or all at once, and one turret. you pull both rams and it fires out 2 shots from the turret. Or pull one ram and fire out a shot. ITS A DUAL BARRELED SHOTGUN REVOLVER
Seleziona in reply to KnexFreekJan 24, 2010. 7:13 AM
