The H.V.I Cannon S-GR 2280 by Skreetsha
Check my Wall-E Garbage Bot too!

My sweet new cannon!
It has outstanding power, looks and has a crazy range!
About 80 ft!
I do think this is one of my biggest guns ever even, bigger than the A.D.U!
This was supossed to become the V2 for the A.D.U but it now has wheels so i can't really call it a V2.
Anyway, great gun and a must for everyone (with a lot of pieces) with nothing to build!
Now for some pros and no's:

Pros:
-Awesome range
-Looks great
-Very powerful
-Drives smooth
-Scares anyone instantly

No's:
-Very high part use (view parts list)

You likey?
Let's get to building then!

Lol, don't be, just never point it at yourself, made that mistake myself. Big ####ing bruise on my arm for 2 weeks, lol. Gotta have some pain for the K'nex building X)

Knexman15 says: Aug 30, 2011. 9:51 AM
Are the green rods under the yellow connectors essential???
Skreetsha (author) says: Sep 19, 2011. 11:48 AM
Yes, that's how you mount the bottom half and the top half together.

BuilderLoon says: Feb 10, 2010. 10:02 AM
If this Knex Cannon works, Then what would the range and accuracy be on it?
knex luver123 says: Feb 8, 2010. 4:42 PM
in every knex cannon/ bazooka i have made, i can always find ways to make the stronger
Fred the Penguin says: Aug 2, 2009. 8:36 PM
problem with your first picture the rubber bands are right in front of the barrel
Hiyadudez says: Aug 19, 2009. 6:28 AM
They are supposed to be like that.
Fred the Penguin says: Aug 19, 2009. 10:12 PM
wouldnt they get in the way?
Hiyadudez says: Aug 20, 2009. 1:56 AM
Apparently no, because almost all knex annons have them near the front of the barrel, as i show in Viccie.B1993's other cannon:

knexsuperbuilderfreak says: Jan 1, 2010. 4:41 PM
no they dont thoose are the bands for the pull back(as far as i know)
agent harmsy says: Sep 7, 2009. 12:44 AM
Except when I built it, they DID get in the way! T'was quite annoying, so the gun only stayed built for about 2 days...
Fred the Penguin says: Aug 23, 2009. 9:14 PM
blah.
mettaurlover says: Oct 5, 2009. 5:28 PM
i have GOT to build this out of micros.
Hephestus says: Sep 19, 2009. 12:57 PM
your ible' reminds me of "I_am_Canadian" cannon
Skreetsha (author) says: Sep 19, 2009. 1:24 PM
Alot of people before you already pointed that out, but it wasn't supposed too, it just came out looking like that.
Hiyadudez says: Aug 19, 2009. 6:33 AM
Are they rubberbands or string?
BuilderLoon says: Aug 15, 2009. 7:45 AM
I gave my friend an old tv and he gave me 2 full boxes of KNEX KERCHING!
marlonlaija says: Aug 5, 2009. 9:51 PM

boggstown says: Jul 28, 2009. 1:20 PM

I_am_English says: Jul 21, 2009. 12:23 PM

I_am_English says: Jul 21, 2009. 5:06 AM
no hahahaha lol
I_am_English says: Jul 21, 2009. 4:06 AM
can i use yellow connecters for the barrel because I built every thing else but the barrel and I thought I would have enough
geodez says: Jun 23, 2009. 11:44 PM
not enough grey connectors for ammo! can i use anything else?
Skreetsha (author) says: Jun 23, 2009. 11:54 PM
Sure, you can use those 2-side greys, or even red connectors, i guess.
geodez says: Jun 24, 2009. 10:29 AM
thank you, by the way this is the most piece efficient cannon other then logic boy's but this is cool, and i will build.
Skreetsha (author) says: Jun 24, 2009. 12:11 PM
Uhm.. not trying to annoy you but, i think the ADU is more piece-efficient. But thats a bazooka ;)
geodez says: Jun 24, 2009. 12:37 PM
the ADU is actually a shoulder fired bastille because it fires an arrow-type projectile.
bighead5454 says: Jun 24, 2009. 11:46 AM
will different size wheels work other then just some small ones will large ones work too?
Skreetsha (author) says: Jun 24, 2009. 12:14 PM
The wheels are not required, i just putted them on for some extra beefy look :P But i guess you can use normal sized wheels too :)
killerAP says: Apr 1, 2009. 5:45 PM
ok how big of a dent does this put into your walls? also you should put some flattened cardboard boxes and see how far it goes through them. I cant build this cuz i only got, oh, say, 1% of the total pieces you have. any idea where I can get tons more!
