Ah i remember the good ol days of making knex guns... At my peak i built this massive 5 foot long sniper rifle whwre the bolt has a 3 foot travel distance and multiple of those super thick bands you often see on broccoli. I had to make foot holds on the stock because the draw weight was so extreme you had to pull it back with 2 hands. It took a lot of trial and error reinforcing it. The ammo was yellow rods with paper fins that curl up to allow it to go into the barrel. First test firing sent it straight through the drywall in my room. Outdoor testing had a range of 340 feet.
wow! sounds amazing, i wonder how effective it would be in a Halloween trick or treat time😂. i havent actually gone on one so i wouldn't know. i am coming back one last time with gun better and more simple than all my guns combined. i will explain everything, that has happened in my life and what this means for the future.
It is really cool! But I feel like it doesn’t have enough range. I tried to upgrade it by putting smaller bands on and twisting them a bit but still. It takes a while to shoot sometimes. Like a bit of a delay. I will keep looking to see if I could make it better 👍
i had the same problem with the larger mags. my latest guns have smaller mags to give them more power without the rubber bands putting to much force on the firing rod. i have built two better firing guns so far they are on my channel if you are interested
these are very easy to get hold of, i like to make sure i use easy-to-get-hold-of pieces, i tried to find other mechanisms that could replace it but they didn't work. i am very sorry if this has happened, because back in the early days i also hated it when you take ages to half build something and there is a piece you don't have and can't replace. i have some tutorials coming out that don't require special pieces.
i slowly collected the knex over the years, i got my first knex when i was about ten. mostly off eBay buying the knex new is too expensive. although my youtube channel has got me into blender and film making
@@greatknexinventions3932 can you tell me any like sets you bought with those types of knex in it because I bought one from Amazon and it had great reviews but it has not much pieces in it and I’m just looking for a set with let’s of original knex in it.
i am coming back one last time with gun better and more simple than all my guns combined. i will explain everything, that has happened in my life and what this means for the future
maybe it needs some adjusting. try to pushing the firing rod down the mag. once that is done try to adjust the angle of the mag. if this doesn't work. maybe some of your red bars are slightly bent?. i hope this helps
my german ww1 rifle is coming out tomorrow, do you have a second channel with that name? because i might have to write over the original name for the shout out. but yeah sure
i could but the mag might either have to be straight or have a smaller mag loaded in the top, and have a curved mag as an ascetic. good build i will try it. i have made an Uzi for my next gun build, but i have a few next gen builds here sci fi gun th-cam.com/video/psJsOkWDnLw/w-d-xo.html sniper rifle th-cam.com/video/_9LamFuOv20/w-d-xo.html
try adjusting the rubber bands to have more tension. also look down the barrel (obviously not loaded😉) and see if the inside of the barrel is all aligned. also this gun was more for the looks than the shooting far, but not to worry since new upcoming gun can shoot much further that both.

sorry for the cringe opening. i would love to hear what i should build
5:47 I can't clip in the parts they don't reach

Cool😊
Amazing tutorial mate, found out that you can use a small rubber band for the trigger attached to the bar holding the iron sights
Will it still work without the material at 2:50?

Next Can you build an axe or cutless
my next video is a shot gun, i give a peek of it at the end of this video, but an axe sounds like a good build
Thanks i am not done yet because i dont have any more round pieces but i knot its good unless my rubber band is too strong
rubber bands shouldn't be too hard to get hold of, maybe a different one would work better
it was so hard to build and this piece 2:50 I don't have so now I need to take it apart

very good
thanks. this gun was a test for a better gun after taking a break on guns, but i have built some larger ones that are being filmed as we speak.
Nice , i m thinking another design like you but it might be with electro magnet
hence my latest build is a sci fi gun, that looks like some sort of rail gun, but if you are using real magnets then you are a few steps ahead of me😉
Can anyone tell me where did he get those all those knex from?

@@clxuds-z5v the best set i can recumbent is the trail rider, it is a red land rover. i found it quite good for the pieces, and ideas
I honestly had to use some bendy pieces for this😂😂
didn't have enough pieces? i might have to make some smaller guns

The rod that pushes the smaller rod down the barrel doesnt line up for some reason
maybe it needs some adjusting. try to pushing the firing rod down the mag. once that is done try to adjust the angle of the mag. if this doesn't work. maybe some of your red bars are slightly bent?. i hope this helps
What type of gun is it?
2:26 won’t connect
wow dude! these are amazing! I just subbed so can I get a shoutout as Hawkfrost 77?
my german ww1 rifle is coming out tomorrow, do you have a second channel with that name? because i might have to write over the original name for the shout out. but yeah sure
Im impressed bye your skills of building
thanks😅😇. this gun was still more of a test i have a better bar gun coming up
The blue rod with the 2 red things on it doesn’t go it
Pls can you make a AK-47 next pls
i could but the mag might either have to be straight or have a smaller mag loaded in the top, and have a curved mag as an ascetic. good build i will try it. i have made an Uzi for my next gun build, but i have a few next gen builds here

Day 2 of requesting a bolt action knex gun :)
i hope you like it. i have just found a new way to make a larger mag that extends down not up.
Cool
Hey my friend titan smiler wants you to make AK-47
i will try to make an AK-47, but i have two other builds in line
For me it’s really bad at shorting anf it only travels a few inches
try adjusting the rubber bands to have more tension. also look down the barrel (obviously not loaded😉) and see if the inside of the barrel is all aligned. also this gun was more for the looks than the shooting far, but not to worry since new upcoming gun can shoot much further that both.
Yo can I get a shoutout? I subbed a few months ago I think
