Introduction: T.B.A.R (Thunder Bolt Assault Rifle)
Due to many requests I am posting the TBAR or Thunder Bolt Assault rifle.
This rifle is just packed with special features. Some new and innovative and some old. First off, it is actually two guns in one. A 16 shot gun with removable clip, and a single shot sling shot that can reach ranges of 100-120 feet. The 12 shot gun reaches ranges of 45-50 feet and has some mighty power behind it. Oh, and both guns are fired from the true trigger in front of the handle.
So this is my assault rifle. The features:
Two guns it one and both are fired from one true trigger.
It has a textured butt for combat.
One of the guns has a 16 round removable clip for large ammo.
The other gun is a single shot slingshot that can shoot oner 100 feet easy.
And it uses a new trigger system that can fire both guns itself.
As you may know this had a rail in the slidshow, but that got taken apart before I made the instructions. If you want to build it from the pictures, here is the link to the slideshow.
**EDIT** This instructable has got up to 4.03 stars.
Thanks,

I know this might be kind of weird, but how big is the barrel? Because I dislike the guns with A barrel shell and 3 layers of barrel orange connectors.
which is what most big guns are made of. Just in case u don't understand what im saying (because i'm confusing) go to Oblivitus and look at his rifle the Z35 or something because I made that and the ammo doesn't get hit by the firing pin since the ammo moves sideways in the barrel, "dodging" the firing pin making it not shoot.

You built the chamber incorrectly.

Really? I even built it twice and it doesn't work.
Reply 12 years ago on Introduction
Then you built it wrong twice. You're the first one to tell me that they had that problem.
Reply 11 years ago on Introduction
I built your Z35 and it was awesome.
Reply 13 years ago on Introduction
I think I get what your saying. There is not that kind of barrel on it. The ram goes through the real barrel, and right into the clip. Since the ram shoots through the clip there is not that problem.

Wow, great gun! My shot against some bricks, and it split my gray connector right in half. Then, the slingshot broke my tan clip. That is power.

Why did you put that thing in the front?
Reply 13 years ago on Introduction
I think it looks better.
Reply 12 years ago on Step 16
plz write back as quick as possible how do you build the thing on the front and how do you attach it plz write back (what i mean by the thing on the front is the black fake barrel with the red light on the front)
