Xenon XR-14 High Range Pistol

High range bolt action pistol. This gun is very simple to make shoots very far. With a sharpened stick, it can go straight through a piece if cardboard. The design is all mine except the handle which I borrowed of the Auto Loading Assault Pistol. Has a very simple block trigger mechanism. It has a 6 round hopper secured by rubber bands that also close the roof so the blue rods can't fall out.

You can't rate something 0 stars.

Bummer, aye?

DJ Radio says:

well, if you rate something 0 stars, its like you don't rate it at all. All unrated ibles have a 0.00 star average. 0.5 is as close as it gets.

Nov 30, 2009. 8:02 PMajleece (author) says:

Actually i think unrated ibles start at 2.5.

DJ Radio says:

No, an unrated ible has 0.00 stars.

Are you serious? cause its not crap. It has a hopper. I would never build it but 1 star it crude. Well Whatev, its your decision :)
