Introduction: Camo Snapbow
This is a Nerf Snapbow I made, and it shoots micros and stefans through the breech. I painted it with Rustoleum flat black and camo taped the body. Ranges: 100 feet, effective range about 50-70.
Please rate and comment if you like it! :)
EDIT: It now has an RSCB magazine!!! No pics yet, sorry. Also, forgot to say before, but it has a removable shoulder stock that is insertable by the modified 90 degree elbow you see by the rear of the gun. Complete clearance from the moving plunger handle.
BIG EDIT *PLEASE READ*: I DO NOT take credit for the basic mechanism of this gun. Rork on nerfhaven.com deserves the glory. Now, I built this about 2 years ago and since then there's been an updated, extremely easy to build (if you got a dremel, a few common tools, and a hardware store, you're good) new version on Nerfhaven right here.
It works like a nerf nitefinder, only large scale. You pull back the plunger to prime the spring piston inside, then press the trigger and the rubber plunger head springs forward, pushing out a volume of air, to the barrel and the dart, which flies out. JUST GO TO THE LINKED SITE.
I just added my own mods to it - the foregrip, black paintjob with camo tape, slightly modified plunger rod just using what i had, and iron sights. You can do whatever you like to make it look how you want it to. Just so long as it works.

Is your foregrip handle stable, you used zipties? What kind of spring did you use?
Reply 13 years ago on Introduction
Yeah, the foregrip handle is really stable. In addition to two big zip ties, it's also got hot glue. So it's stable enough for use, definitely. And as far as I tried, I could cock the gun while holding the foregrip instead of the rear handle, so it's definitely stable enough.
Also, the spring I'm not sure what company it was, but it has the spring names that start with C-xxxxx (x being numbers) and come in packages with yellow tops. I used two springs about .5 inch OD, .080 wire thickness, and 6 inches long - total 12 inches long uncompressed. The springs were bought at OSH.
