Knex L96a1

Intro: Knex L96a1

this is my knex replica of the accuracy international l96a1 it features effectively the same firing system as my knex R700, but has been modified to fit into the body of an l96a1, the scope is the same old scope as i am no good at making scopes. the gun has a fake bolt on it, its not necessary but adds some authenticity to the gun. the gun was made more as a model but is quite reliable and has a fair range depending on the elastic bands you use.

pros:
looks good
reliable
fair range
low ammount of pieces
fair accuracy
low friction
light weight

cons:
long reload time
scope sometimes jams the round
the barrel is flexible

over all the gun has a fair ammount of range accuracy and is usualy reliable. Black ops DID NOT give me any
inspiration so dont accuse me of being a black ops player another thing is that as soon as I bought my airsoft l96 that it was very badly made

post it. id like to make the black ops version, please.

[pinderfish]

well, I haven't touched Knex in like......well it seems like 2 years, but I dont think it is! but it feels like ages, and I guess I haven't actually posted anything yet......and I did like this gun......but its not very realistic, and it is quite unreliable, and quite flexible, but.....I might do it and improve it......so, yeah alright, give me a few weeks, and I'll start today

I swear if knex was just as popular as Black ops the L96 would be overdone just like the number of Machinima gameplay/commentaries.

[pinderfish]

sorry but i hate black ops its just i wanted a crack at this gun as i think it is used by british snipers and it looks better than the m24 or r700 or the m107

[DJ Radio]

Heh. I figured a bunch of people would be trying the L96 since Black Ops has that gun in the game.

[dragon#1]

u r smart. how did u know:)

[pinderfish]

no i made the gun for a challenge and also a race to see who could make the best knex sniper rifle

[Puddock]

Holy long barrel.

[pinderfish]

yeah it is quite long!

[The Chunky Sniper!]

Surely your scope on your airsoft l96 was blocking the bolt in that position?

[pinderfish]

no not at all, how would the scope block the bolt?

[The Chunky Sniper!]

The rings seem to be VERY far back on the rail. I dunno, maybe its just the scope rings I have. Oh, I was going to ask you, did you have the hop-up problem when you got your L96?

[pinderfish]

no hop-up problems although it's very difficult to get to.

[The Chunky Sniper!]

Right, its just that mine seems to like firing to the left for some reason.

[pinderfish]

you could have a notch or groove in the barrel or some dirt in it but thats all i can think of

[The Chunky Sniper!]

My guess is thaat the hop-up is far too tight.... WHY WON'T THIS FREAKING ALAN KEY WORK???

[pinderfish]

actualy take the body off and try to do it as you may be missing it

[The Chunky Sniper!]

Thats what I'm trying to do, but the alan key wont work on the screw near the trigger.

[The Chunky Sniper!]

In Scotland... airsoft guns aren't two-tone!
I wasn't clear, you can see where I mean in the picture.

[pinderfish]

the hop up is not behind the trigger its infront of the mag release
