star wars geek Posted February 11, 2011 Author Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) i took pictures of the different types of ammo Edited July 26, 2011 by star wars geek Quote
Out of Sight Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 Interesting ..what do those rubber bands do? Are they used to propel/shoot the projectiles like a catapult? How about using compressed air to propel the projectiles...idk maybe, using PF motors feeding a compressor, and let go once the air is filled up. It works in the same principle as detonating gun powder inside a gun..sudden expansion of air forcing the projectiles out. For more accurate aiming, you simply can't use lego bricks as projectiles though..try airsoft BB pellets instead. Quote

Out of Sight Posted February 11, 2011 Posted February 11, 2011 WOW, that really shows its accuracy and power, I didn't expect it to work that good Just a silly thought...you know those small pen type laser pin pointers used for presentations etc, maybe strap it on on top of the gun, so you can really aim with accuracy now.

star wars geek Posted February 11, 2011 Author Posted February 11, 2011 (edited) i have replaced the elastics that are arond the barrel of the gun with tape for better strength u could probably recognize this in the third video and in the second picture Edited February 11, 2011 by star wars geek Quote
star wars geek Posted February 11, 2011 Author Posted February 11, 2011 i now have started constructing my rifle and it should take me about a day i will take pics Quote
star wars geek Posted February 11, 2011 Author Posted February 11, 2011 OK while u wait for my rifle heres on old video of my gun Quote
Out of Sight Posted February 12, 2011 Posted February 12, 2011 Thanks for the vid, it gives a clearer information about your gun! It's real nice to see a Technic MOC other than the usual automotive and construction equipment theme. Looking forward to see your rifle Quote
bord4kop Posted February 13, 2011 Posted February 13, 2011 I don 't like it, sorry. I 'm more of a pacifist really ;) But that 's not the issue. Technically it 's not that advanced and esthetically it 's not nice to look at. Can 't you use more of the same color? The proportions are nice though. But I 've seen better things.. Quote
star wars geek Posted February 14, 2011 Author Posted February 14, 2011 (edited) here is the start of my rifle and the mess that its taking to make it and its unfortunately very colorful i don't know why some of the pics are up side down so sorry Edited February 14, 2011 by star wars geek Quote
