Hi, this is my 5^th knex gun posted, and my 9^th instructable.
This is a pistol that comes with an optional sling for easy access and storage for knex wars and for fun. It features an internal hopper, true trigger and comfy handle.

Version history

V1.0: a single shot, though quite good looking and powerful pistol.
V1.1: I added a better firing pin
V1.2: I made the internal hopper and sling.

Pros
True trigger
comfy handle
6 shots with hopper
Easy acces/storage, with 1 hand able pickup.

Cons
Jams occasionally
You need 2 hands to put it away
Takes an age to reload

1. This is a close up.
2. This is the completed gun.
3. Add this, i forgot to add the second side of the mag.

Step 6: Adding Rubberbands, Loading, Firing, and Attaching to the Holster.

Now you are going to add the spaceship to the banana, and learn how to load the phone and then fire the camera. I mean add the rubberbands, load the hopper and fire the gun. I need to work on my memory.
1. These are everything you will need.
2. This is the firing pin.add this in the back of the gun, you should see why.
3. Add the long ones over the top of the gun
4. Add this to the trigger
5. The gun is off the holster
6. The gun is now on the holster.

To load, get 6 yellow rods and put them to the left of the green connector wall, then put the grey connector back across so it is not quite attached. Then pull back the firing pin

Well, I hope you have fun with the storm 22 pistol. This makes for ideal carriage for a knex war, so i reccomend you use it. If you have any questions, comment me.
