Introduction: Knex Experimental SMG

About: Knex builder here at Instructables. I build Guns, and, Roller Coaster. I currently build about 2-3 guns a month. I strive to post quality as well as quantity. If you have any ideas for a gun for me to try out,…

Hey guys! I'm back, again I want to apologize for not uploading much lately. I've been working on a very large roller coaster and haven't had much time to mess with a gun. I had saw a drawing of a gun and it had this weird ball like ammo. I wanted to experiment with it and see what I could come up with. I did just that, I made a breach loading, ball shooting SMG. I have had very impressive results with this ammo and plan to make a magazine and figure out the best system to use for this ammo.

I'll talk about what I learned about this ammo. Since a ball, at any spot at its rotation, will never flop. That's what makes this ammo unique, it flys straighter than any other ammo I've used, and didn't start dropping until about 50 feet. Ultimately giving this round a consistent range of about 60-70 feet. The only bad things I have found with this round, is that it is very slow moving. I can not for the life of me figure out why. It's just as light as a rod, does not tumble, and is shooting farther than a rod, but yet is considerably slower.

Pros
New ammo
Decent looks
60-70 foot ranges
Breach loaded
Strong trigger
Sturdy
Sights

Cons
Slow moving bullet
No mag

So tell me what you guys think of it. I'd love to hear your opinions of the gun and the ammo itself. Do you think this ammo could be the future ammo?
