I just finished a auto-machine gun with 1 rubberband and 1 motor, but the range is quiet silly ( 4 - 6 feet ) and there is just enough space for 4 bullets

At least about three or four. Once again, I must say the whole gun bit didn't rotate very well

May 31, 2009. 4:14 AMminerug says:
I had another motor inside the back hooked up to it. Admittedly it didn't work too well.

Yeah, but it can't go forwards faster than a snail, because the weight of the gun flexes the axels. I'm still working on it.. (the turret works)

Wow, that thing is massive. I'm suprised that it only weighs 5lbs. Bonus points for adding a crank attatchment. I'll try to make it IF i ever get all of the peices.

Aug 20, 2009. 10:51 AMnatethegreat88 says:
And may i ask how far this shoots and like how many peices this took?

Aug 14, 2009. 11:47 AMFoaly7 says:
how many of what pieces do you need to build this!
Jun 9, 2009. 2:04 PMbarrett50cal says:
that thing would be a pain to reload....but when you shoot it at people and when you have to reaload, just throw the thing at them so they get knocked out, giving you time to reload. lol
May 22, 2009. 8:42 PMOvertheriver says:
Would you be able to substitute the reds on the barrels for something else like a green connector? I'm about 35 off.
May 22, 2009. 8:58 PMOvertheriver says:
Also, would I be able to substitute the yellows for a blue connector?
May 22, 2009. 9:07 PMOvertheriver says:
I take that back. Blue connectors don't fit. :(
May 23, 2009. 5:38 PMOvertheriver says:
I finished it! Now I have no red, yellow or green connectors. :)
Aug 25, 2008. 8:09 AMhomzy05 says:
the yellow connectors, do I put them on each of the two barrels or just one?
