The KING of K'nex RBGs: the Gnasher Shotgun

This is my favourite gun I have ever made (out of k'nex). It is a working model of Gears of War's Gnasher Shotgun (my fav video game gun).

This is a 8 shot semi automatic RBG. Different from other RBG's, you must break the lever (bring it forward) to initiate another shot. The gun is capable of taking heavy pressures, so feel free to lay on the elastic power.

I apologize in advance for some of the pics having poor picture quality. Just ask if you need clarification on any of them.

Hope you guys enjoy this as much as I do.

Dave


Ps: if you hold the lever forward and then shoot, all the elastics fly off at once.

Build exactly what you see here to construct the hand guard part of the lever (the part you put your hand in. The upper part also acts as a trigger guard.

This gun works amazingly and is a great replica. Great job. I moded it for pump action with a simple lever system and strengthened everything so it holds like 30 bands. XD

Nice gun, steps a bit unclear but I managed to build it. It does not have semi-auto firing, You must cycle the gun.
May 14, 2010. 1:09 PMnarutokid201 says:
in blatent terms it is semi-auto cause you dont need to but a new bullet in every time
Oct 21, 2010. 11:46 AMtomm0505 says:
No, Semi auto is one bullet per trigger pull, without having to re-cock the gun afterwards.
Mar 29, 2011. 12:29 PMtmilligan says:
Semi automatic shotgun, unless theres buck shot, multiple projectiles are fired.

I made some upgrade my self: i made it longer the middle 2 rows whit connerctors and rods so rubberbands don't get squeezed and slow them down and the bi-pod from morretti SR-4 just for some fun Ow and i still need to add the mech upgrade. And whit the right rubberbands 6-7m almost accurate.
Oct 3, 2009. 5:15 AMferrari484 says:

May 10, 2010. 8:18 PMTheEvilCookie says:
I've added a simple barrel so that instead of shooting rubberbands, it shoots ammo. the ammo is a red connecter + green rod + orange conecter. After each shot just simply place it in then break lever than shoot =]
