One of my original triumphs was my Original Handgun It was a good project, and despite many further attempts, i never replicated that nice unique design.
The new version i have dubbed 'The Sunstar' it fires a live flare of fusion material from the small star at its core. The star itself is held in a Tri-directional gravity field, keeping the gun light and accurate.
Most things that come into contact with the blast will melt, including most metals.
If needs be the gun opens to fire a pulse of sun matter, which can take out a small army (read a few hundred)
The original was not very well thought up, so i decided to 'Mod' it, using these various fine materials.

- Some nice upholstery leather
- Some fancy wood veneer
- Some lenses
- A variety of small cogs
- A few new nozzle sections

I decided on a slightly different mechanism for it to open, give an optional 'sun blast' mode.
Firstly i removed all the the section where the 'vial was before' (see first picture)
Next i replaced this with various parts to give more of an 'internal barrel' feel, it took a bit of playing around, and these items were held in places using both epoxy resin and superglue.
Next to work on the top. The bottom hinge would open just as before, but the top needed to open upward. First i had to file the gap to allow for a more heavy duty bolt, this through the back hole then made my hinge. The original magnets hold it closed perfectly.
I then used an old motor from a CD drive on one side, an old clock provided me with some small plastic cogs. These were all glued in place using epoxy resin.
Finally, an old perf wheel from work fitted perfectly as the barrel.

Just a thought in case you make a future model (or in case I decide to do something similar for that matter :P ).
For the sun, it should be possible to get one or two little screens (from an old cellphone store) and put in a rechargeable battery to run a video of a living star. The gun would suddenly look even more believable, and if you were to pull it out to show someone, they would do the biggest double take in history!
Either way, amazing, amazing project!
Other then that I really like it, good show!
Thanks for the comment.
guns and Goggles soon..
Btw where do you get your Materials ?
like Brass and Mechanical parts?
( a spear like projectile )
gets thrown from the Gun...
have you ever seen a Hot wheels track?
you know those Track Boosters?
well this is Generally the same Basic Idea
