fully automatic knex gun (UPDATED) by extreme builder
FIRST OFF: DO NOT BUILD THIS GUN, ITS A PROTOTYPE!!

This gun is based off of bakenbitz idea and i just improved it and changed it around. Its fully automatic. It works by cranking. I made this gun to shot airsoft bbs but thats just because i like that so u can make it shoot something else if you like. It probably shoots about 3 or 4 per second. It comes with a clip that holds about 23 bbs. If enough people ask for the instructable than ill do it. It still needs some work but it doesn't shoot to far but its a brand new design and there is nothing else like it that i can find. hope you like it. please comment on what you think about it and if you upgrade it please tell me thanks.

I've only got a little gear without tan connector hole, so mine slips cuz it isn't attached to the axle. How do I solve that?
TheKnexDemon says: Jul 27, 2011. 6:18 AM
Get two stub connectors (small blue things with no hole) and try pushing them close up to the gear
mmuscarella1 says: Nov 24, 2011. 3:04 PM
if u use the tan ones with the stubs on them u can connect them in the small holes in the sides of the gears
TheKnexDemon says: Apr 6, 2012. 1:05 AM
But then when the gear rotates, it would be blocked by that tan connector which would cause many problems

super glue

I need t say this... i isn't fully automatc, its crank action
dutch ghillie says: Feb 27, 2012. 6:59 AM
the grey clip is broken a clip to hold the bb's
danroy99 says: Dec 23, 2011. 7:38 AM
Does it work with metal bbs?
arjun1 says: Dec 16, 2011. 9:03 AM
does not work
jake scythe says: Oct 23, 2011. 8:35 AM
it is basicly a gattling gun in rifle size
donnie2 says: Oct 31, 2010. 2:30 AM
mine wnt work no matter wat!! :(
TigerNod says: Nov 21, 2010. 4:41 AM
As the description says, it's a prototype. I built it too, it is very unreliable.
qwerty987 says: Feb 1, 2011. 3:15 PM
when i built one it would blow up in my face every time but i will try again. it is ok if you make fun of me for it blowing up.
TigerNod says: Feb 5, 2011. 1:23 PM
Ow..... That's... Unfortunate.

I won't make fun out of you. It is a commonly known fact that most full-auto's have a tendency to blow up.
ryanreers says: Dec 28, 2010. 7:34 AM
if you switched the gears they crank would turn faster
Sketch98 says: Jan 27, 2011. 7:13 PM
but there would be less torque causing it to struggle under more rubber bands
knex1111111111 says: Jan 19, 2011. 3:08 PM
I added a motor instead of the crank and it became automatic.
the vengeful aug says: Jan 10, 2011. 7:22 PM
Rename this the PM63.
flyerminer says: Oct 10, 2010. 1:55 PM

Spycrab says: Aug 17, 2010. 7:10 AM

Blackbird17 says: Aug 16, 2010. 6:02 PM

Blackbird17 says: Jun 19, 2009. 4:01 AM

ellis-perks says: Aug 7, 2010. 12:32 AM

sukinmaru says: Jul 31, 2010. 1:59 PM

Merugop says: Jul 31, 2009. 12:32 PM
Oh yeah what are those grey parts in the middle
Abcwtfidontcare says: Jul 12, 2010. 8:44 AM
Those grey parts in the middle of the barrel are 3 tan clips.
anres321 says: Jul 5, 2010. 9:03 AM
hey I have made a fully automatic knex gun that works with a totaly diffirent system that is never used before on a fully automatic one. So would you plz tell me wath you think about it ?? here is the URL: http://www.instructables.com/id/Fully-Automatic-knex-Gun-it-really-works-/
snow clones says: Jun 20, 2010. 6:45 AM
Great gun; try making a high mag, high power, bolt slingshot sniper! I've made one and it goes about twice as far because you use a bullet that slides on the rail, and the power is a slingshot.
pokemonguy123 says: Apr 26, 2010. 12:43 PM
i have seen it on you tube im paranid630
joelyboy94 says: Apr 14, 2010. 5:31 AM
 Your photos are fine and your guns wicked, but you mite find knex mlcad useful - there are quite a few annoying flaws in the program because its pirate, but if u manage u can make decent images and instructions. im not gonna lie its hard but tell me if u want the program
smattman22 says: Jul 29, 2009. 8:34 PM
mine wont fire or pull back far enough.
extreme builder (author) says: Jul 29, 2009. 9:26 PM
you must of done something wrong than
smattman22 says: Jul 30, 2009. 6:09 PM
i have thick rubberbands. but it doesnt slide all the way foward
michiel123456789 says: Mar 30, 2010. 8:51 AM
I know what you mean. You've gotta add spacers (not connectors or there will be blocking something) here:
