Yes. I made a knex replica of it. The first pic is a comparison.

Then you need to have your title say "K'NEX Nerf Reflex" not "Knex Nerf Jolt." If yours is a copy of the reflex, don't call it a jolt! XD Also, it is "K'NEX" not "Knex." I have to remind people of that all the time. And, you don't need to have "Knex" in your title, it is not needed.
