Introduction: M17 Sniper Rifle
This is a cool looking sniper rifle I called "The M17". It uses a slingshot design and an awesome trigger made by Viccie.B1993. You can also attach things like the bi pod (made by darth gecko man), the iron sight, and the ugly scope down in step 6. Watch out for snapping rubber bands, don't shoot the regular bolt up close to something (or it will break), and dont break anything valuable either. Also, keep an eye out for the image notes they are very important when building this gun. Check out my SR-V3 slide show too! https://www.instructables.com/id/SR-V3/
Pros: Looks cool
very accurate at a distance and up close
shoots 130 to 160 feet
comfortable and strong stock
6 second reload time
only requires one rubber band to go the distance advertised
and uses regular #64's OR thick #64's
Cons: fake magazine.
Over all I'd give it an 8/10
I hope you like it and you have fun with it!
if you have any questions or comments, please don't wait to ask.

you say don't make this do you realy mean 'DON'T MAKE THIS?'
Reply 14 years ago on Introduction
no I meant dont make that longer part of the barrel. and did you say you made the gun and you only got 40 to 70 feet. well to to get more range aim it at a 45 degree angle and fire it with thick rubber bands and also, even though it may snap your bands more easily, you should make sure the rubber band is tight.
