This is my third entry to the K'nex Contest, and I would be thankful for your vote.


Raw power, reliability, and cool looks are just a few of the traits of my new carbine. Skillfully designed from my own collection of K'nex, this is a gun that will provide hours of shooting fun. It may just be a single shot, but it is hard to argue with good range. Of course, I have provided clear instructions and a parts list, to make it easy to create this awesome lump of plastic. The pros and cons are as follows:

PROS:

Looks pretty decent.

Rather good comfort.

Over 70 feet of range with only two rubber bands.

Reliable.

Trigger is very easy to pull.

Fairly light.

Not too many pieces.

Good size.

No cut pieces.

CONS:

Not super sturdy. (Good enough for most use, just don't drop it much.)

No sights.

Lots of rods sticking out.

Sorry, but no video. I tried, but my voice ended up sounding like a three year old with a fake southern accent.

Pull the rubber bands back, and hook them onto the ratchet. Load one oodammo as show. Shoulder the weapon, and squeeze the trigger.

Have fun!
