Introduction: Semi-Automatic Knex Shotgun V2.0 Instructions
The first pic is the original, guys. This is my Knex Shotgun. It's a true semi-automatic knex gun. Hold six shells (bullets) and is jam free. Also this gun is very reliable and of my own design.
With small .64 rubber bands i got it to shoot 50-65 feet. I rebuilt the stock and the handle is more comfy, also the trigger is better! Rudimentary sights, open to ideas, put any improvements you can think of in comments pls.(or pm me)
Step 1: Stock
Build this from the pics
Step 2: Handle and Semi-auto Mech
Build this.
Step 3: The Barrel and Fore Grip.
This is pretty self-explanatory. Just look at the pics
Step 4: Connect to the Body.
Now connect it to the body, pretty easy.
Step 5: Loading Mech
Now Build this and insert here.
Step 6: Build These.
Attach like so.
Step 7: Rubber Bands and Loading
Here's how to attach them and load it. Repeat the process to load multiple bullets, max is seven with tiny mod

I'm going to attempt to construct a semi-automatic crossbow variant using a mechanism heavily inspired by this. I hope I am successful, lmao, this will boost my "morale" and don't ask why, but for some odd reason I feel the need to invent a semi automatic crossbow. Goodbye!

I built this gun, but all of the bands shoot one single ammo piece, and not each trigger pull, did i do something wrong?
Reply 2 years ago
most likely yes. if built corectly it should fire 6 shots, one ammo peice per band. troubleshoot with me ill try and hit you back. pms are open

is it true semi auto?
Reply 3 years ago
Yes. It’s fully semi auto. Clip holds 6 shots and it will fire one every trigger pull until clip is empty.
