hey man, i built this gun i i actually liked it until it started to jam.
thats a real issue, as i am spending more time unblocking the gun, than shooting it. i believe i have built everything correctly.
do you know how to solve this problem?

I made your glock and it is awesome! I just saw one problem: That brown lock on the ram makes it not push, so I replaced it with two blue rings, which makes it work much better. And the magazine doesn't work with the grey connectors. so I use a blue rod for shooting. Other than that, it works great!

oo burn...
Reply 15 years ago on Introduction
Not meant to be a burn lol. TheDunkis TDS shoots very far for a side-arm, it's just that side-arms have low range.

20-30 feet is not that bad...
Reply 15 years ago on Introduction
Well, compared to mid-sized to big knex guns it is low.

How far does your g36c and your thompson shoot?
Reply 15 years ago on Introduction
I don't want to exagerate so i'd say 40ish ft G36C, 30ish-35ish ft thompson. It all depends on rubber bands. The G36C is more powerfull, but is more prone to jamming.
Reply 15 years ago on Introduction
Ok, but I don't see 30 feet as bad distance. It's probably because the longest hallway in my house I'm allowed to test fire in is about 15 feet, so I don't really get the chance to test guns unless I go outside.

Well the problem with the TDS and this gun is the friction of the barrel. I could fix this easily right now but I have other plans in store.
