Can I use a small blue one-way connector instead of the tan one-way connectors on all the steps? Since I have very little tan pieces but alot of the one-way blue connectors that are just like the tan ones.

Also does anybody know how to make a safety for any gun? Since one time I made a crossbow and it went off by accident and hit my mom in the glasses... I don't want that to happen with the gun. I always point the gun down to the ground with two hands when I'm not using it but I still my go off by accident.
