Another gun!? Yes!
How am I supposed to keep getting better and better without building a lot? Well, let's forget about that and take a look at the actual gun. 
This gun is a normal ram rod gun, with a removable magazine. But there's something about the magazine that makes this gun worth posting... And it's the magazine from the ghost! I know, lots of you are going to be saying, "It's just another ghost! In a different body!" and that is partially true, but you can't go wrong with that mag. 
So let's get into the features. It has: A pin guide! It has an elongated version of the magazine from the ghost, Great looks, good sights, quite comfortable, and is quite reliable!
So, you ask, what is bad? Well there are a couple things. The handle and stock are a little flimsy (they can be twisted), and it has a very high part count. So, if you have a lot of pieces, this is a great gun, and I highly recommend building it! It's worth it!

It was a good replica, however it did not shoot very well- it kept jamming and the bullets kind of rotated as they flew. 4*
Sep 20, 2011. 2:52 PMknexjay says:
Are there supposed to be any annotations? I need those...
Sep 12, 2011. 8:19 AMRed-Dragon says:
Great! but the stock isnt that good
Jul 28, 2011. 4:38 AMbullet tooth chris says:
what is the tape for? on the top of the mag?
Jul 29, 2011. 3:37 AMbullet tooth chris says:
I had thought it was for that and I secured some orange connectors with the green rods was I meant to do that? It still fires so I think it doesnt matter
Jul 29, 2011. 4:21 PMbullet tooth chris says:
I have been ok but I will take them of just in case, thanks
Apr 22, 2011. 7:49 AMkwintisolo12234 says:
does this gun uses any broken parts?
because i really like this gun but i dont want to break any pieces.
Apr 23, 2011. 4:13 AMkwintisolo12234 says:
then which pieces need to be broken/ decapitated?
Jul 28, 2011. 2:39 AMbullet tooth chris says:
I would guess it to be orange conectors cut in half for the mag loading system
Jul 2, 2011. 1:44 PMlemonpickle says:

EPIC! If there was a knex hall of fame, this would be in it.
Or maybe there already is, I just haven't seen it...
Anyways, 5* well deserved.
Jun 1, 2011. 11:09 AMkwintisolo12234 says:
i built it and it was awesome!
but i broke it down to make knex gun builders m4 s-system
Apr 25, 2011. 12:56 AMrec0n says:
Looks good, the mag is way too wide though. It should be able to hold white rods, not blue rods.
Jan 7, 2011. 4:17 AMtthomasvd says:
picture 4, has those pieces to be broken??
Jan 10, 2011. 11:43 AMtthomasvd says:
