[pls]

what's the mod, different barrel?

[kneecaps]

less recoil due to heavier barrel. sturdier stuff

[pls]

Knex guns don't have recoil O.o

[mettaurlover]

I think he's referring to the jerk you feel with each shot in a powerful gun, which is, in fact, an effect similar to recoil.

[coleslaw3]

I hate this it's so $&:@;$& hard to put to gether 0stars not being mean but god waste of time if I can't put it together without cutting the he// out of my fingers

[ramzone2]

best answer ever .................... spaz

[knexsuperbuilderfreak]

looks ok but next try to bulid a true trigger

[2muchrubik]

pretty cool :D

[gungecko]

ok tested again the gun held six bands! *pulls out two guns and breaks lightbulb* oops!

[gungecko]

ive got another mod (sort of) of killerk's pistol. it is strong (holds around three bands) uses block trigger, and has two handles. should i post?

[caseyu23]

I THINK ITS PRETTY NICE I WOULD GIVE IT A TEN OUT OF NINE.

[El Barto]

Did you know that 5/3 people have problems with fractions?

[bannana inventor]

lol

[kneecaps]

lol 10/9? what? lol well thanks.

[mousepadd]

[mousepadd]

here

[mousepadd]

Lolz, i made a double barrel handgun using KillerK's idea of the barrell and click on ammo

[instructa-fan]

You're gonna go to jail and be good enoubh to where you order Knex out of that jail catalog, make this, and get a life sentence. Thumbs Up. Get-R-Done.Giggity Goo. Alll Riiiggghhht.

[Jill 32]

Shut up! You say that on like every knex gun instructable.

[instructa-fan]

that was like half a year when i did that, calm down you spastic dog..... (picture)

[kneecaps]

errr... what?

[jli1]

It's good, but a little hard to aim (compared to killerk's). 8 out of 10

[kneecaps]

well i usually hold the barrel of the gun. to lessen recoil. it still has recoil but not as much. do u mean aim as in hit the target? or aim as in seeing where u wanna shoot? if you want a sight. get 2 of the knexmen hands. then just stick it at the front of the gun. it sohuld line up with the gray connectors on the back of the ram rod

[jli1]

I mean aim as in hit the target. The bullet spins forwards when it comes out of the barrel. To help aim better (and not have to hold the barrel)you could build a foreward grip on the pistol.

[kneecaps]

not that many ppl have that many white connectors lol. i dont. and a forward grip would probably interfere with the rubberbands

[jli1]

I made one, and it doesn't interfere at all. I will post a picture soon.

[jli1]

Gun PictureThe library thing doesn't work so here is the link to the picture.

[kneecaps]

well... its good but it ruins the whole "im a pistol look at me!!!" look... it looks like a fucking uzi now

[jli1]

That's a GOOD thing! Jeez.

[kneecaps]

well. i mean uzis are awesome i agree. but when u ruin another old look and its not even an uzi type gun its kinda like a wanna be gun. (wannabe gun=no no)

[kneecaps]

lets see

[jli1]

You could also extens the barrel somehow.

[jli1]

My gun really tears up the rubber bands i use. Any ideas?

[kneecaps]

well... what kind of bands u using? thick and wide? or one of the average bands that are really thin? also does it seriously strain the band to pull it back? i use the averagesmall thin ones, but i use like 20. u should also get new bands. most of the time they come really soft and slippery if new. dry and old ones dont work

[crazyace81]

i love how u put your vids in media player format

[kneecaps]

lol hey thanks. by your logo i see you play soldier front. i do too. if you got xfire my username is flargr-bargr

[crazyace81]

actually i dont play, i got it of the internet

[T-man]

nice

[kneecaps]

lol thanks

[randomaussie]

i ran out of whites so i used about five yellows on the end but there was some space on the greys so i put orange connectors on each one with blues attached on the other side. between those blues i put a few yellows spaced apart and added a few extra rubber bands on the end. warning dont put sewing needles in this. i shot one and it went a good ten centremetres into our table leg wich is pine by the way.
