bushmaster m17s

hey guys !
this is my bushmaster m17s replica thats like 95% perfect as a replica, and also works really well too.

stats:
up to 60 feet with 3 #28 bands
not very accurate
packs a strong punch
looks awesome
spring loaded curved mag
mag release system
safety 100% reliable
uses a lot of broken parts (though a few can be taken off, if you don't build all the mechanisms)
uses at least 11 hinges, but none are necessary (all are for looks, to resemble the real gun which i replicated)
extremely comfortable and easy to use
short ram pull

hope you guys'll like this as much as i do (and i DO)...

here's a vid of it in action:

it is actually already a replica, so i think the gun you linked me to is a replica of the real one as well.

You say "um" a lot in the video.

I know lol. English isn't my primary language so i don't speak too fast if i don't really think about what i'm gonna say before i say it.

Oct 24, 2011. 12:07 PMOblivitus says:

Oh, maybe that's why you didn't get my joke earlier. You speak it well for being a second language. They should teach other languages at an earlier age in America, I didn't get a chance to take a foreign language class until I was a teenager, by that age our brains have stopped being receptive to learning new languages. I barely learned a thing.

Oct 24, 2011. 2:13 PMsharir1701 quit knexing and ibling (author) says:

i got you'r joke from earlier. it just wasn't very funy 's all. and i speak english fluently. i lived in England between ages 3 and 7 (the ages you're most receptive to languages) and learnt there at school 3 years (in England you start school extra early). i just don't naturally think in english because it's not my primary language, so i have to do the process of translating my thoughts from hebrew to english. that is what takes me time when i'm talking about my guns, cause i don't really think things through before i make the video, and then at live i have to do the translation process.

Oct 24, 2011. 3:34 PMOblivitus says:

Ahh all right. Cool.

Oh, then we just don't share the same sense of humor. Either that or it's not as funny when it's typed. You'd have to hear me say it out loud.

Oct 24, 2011. 4:22 PMsharir1701 quit knexing and ibling (author) says:

I think its because its typed. By the way add me on skype dude.

Oct 24, 2011. 6:36 PMOblivitus says:

Yeah, probably. PM me your name.

Oct 21, 2011. 7:50 PMRaz1r Knex Bull3t says:

haha, it's okay. I like your gun BTW.

thanks !

Oct 24, 2011. 12:03 PMOblivitus says:

The mag lock and release is really nice. The grip is good too. I like that it has a smooth, flat surface on three sides. The covering over the pin pull is awkward, it'd be more comfortable if it stuck out on one side only, but if it doesn't have a rail then you won't be able to do that. Overall it's a pretty good copy.

Oct 24, 2011. 2:17 PMsharir1701 quit knexing and ibling (author) says:

thanks and i know what you mean about the top part in the stock. i think that too, but i just just too plain lazy to get it fixed. also, a rail isn't necessary in this case, if you were to make a one side only loading handle, or a top side bolt that doesn't stick out, it would still solve the problem.

thanks anyway !

i know right...? i love this mag, and thanks.

I rated 5*, and how is the full auto mech design?

Oct 21, 2011. 4:19 PMsharir1701 quit knexing and ibling (author) says:

I just put it up there as a concept. I dont intend on continuing it anytime soon. Besides i'm working on the SA 3252 v9 with oblivitus. It should take quite some time to get it done.
