This weapon from Stargate the show was the main stunning weapon used by the SGC and Goa'uld (bad guys).
One shot stuns, two shots kill, three shots could vaporize.
This gun has a safety mode and ready mode.
This K'nex version can change modes.
Down position is safety mode and up position is ready mode.
It is rather easy to make if you know what you're doing.

This was rather hard to get to spring up and stay because of the weight, I then tried using the chain piece than ended up working.

I hope every one enjoys this as my first posted Instructable.
