Introduction: Knex Rapid Fire Grabber Gun
More by the author:
About: I'm in my final year of Product Design at uni so I don't have as much time for tinkering as I'd like. When I'm free I enjoy making props,mechanical models and an ever-growing 1/72 model of wartime Stalingrad -…
I was wondering what to do for a new knex gun so i turned to the make books, and there I found a Knex Claw Grabber so i began to build it but instead of making the claw i added a barrel, my new loading system and a magazine and to my surprise i could shoot very quickly, so i modified it slightly and i made this. you can fire it fast from the hip or aim from the shoulder, you fire it by pulling the handle right back and then releasing it with your fingers spread as below.
i know it isnt finished but i wanted to just get it published.

how the make the handle to fit the red rods.
once you have made the handle, clip 3 yellow connectors to a white rod and put that on to the red rods as in the pictures below. once it is on you can slide some spacers on too to keep it in place.
