Nov 19, 2008. 12:14 PMOompa-Loompa says:

LoL, that is too long. Looks kind of awkward.

Jan 24, 2009. 10:37 AMThe Jamalam says:

ummmmm... real full size snipers come up to the shoulders or heads of 6 ft adults

Jan 24, 2009. 4:07 PMOompa-Loompa says:

I don't care, it still looks weird, besides, most snipers aren't ALL barrel like that is.

If it's that long, it may lose power.

Nov 19, 2008. 2:58 PMbenfoxg says:

less long+ no 350+ feet of range

Nov 19, 2008. 4:10 PMOompa-Loompa says:

LoL

Nov 19, 2008. 5:13 PMbenfoxg says:

*revised* less long= no 350+ feet of range.

Nov 19, 2008. 6:37 PMOompa-Loompa says:

Nov 19, 2008. 6:48 PMbenfoxg says:

Nov 19, 2008. 11:33 AMajleece (author) says:

Nov 19, 2008. 2:58 PMbenfoxg says:

to get 350+ feet of range

Nov 27, 2008. 12:19 AMajleece (author) says:

but wouldnt it have lots of friction

Nov 27, 2008. 7:21 AMbenfoxg says:

no, the bullet flys above the barrel, not in it

Nov 27, 2008. 11:01 AMajleece (author) says:

so the barrel is for either looks or to make the rubber band stretch very far. what type of rubber band did you use

Nov 27, 2008. 11:24 AMbenfoxg says:

#64s

Nov 21, 2008. 5:52 PMdsman195276 says:

well, this is a crossbow set up for starters, and with you're rubber band set up i would be surprised if the ammo left the barrel. get longer rubberbands and attach them at the end of the gun, and put them inside the white connectors the scope hooks onto.

Nov 21, 2008. 6:22 PMajleece (author) says:

I only put the crossbow thingy on because I needed to compensate for not having bigger rubber band things but the bow doesn't bend
