Build the pump. This is a version of the pump used on the OSNJCKMA2, pretty much the greatest gun ever

Pictures:

1. Pump segment
2. Put 8 segments on, spaced with gray connectors
3. Rear of the pump. Pushes the ram rod back
4. Attach the rear of the pump
5. Front of the pump. The ball joint is where the rubber band attaches
6. Sliders. The pump slide goes thru here

P1040219.JPG
P1040220.JPG
The bulk of the gun.

Pictures:

1. One side of the frame (make two of these)
2. Put them together like this (notice the blue connecting rods and the slight changes on the side facing you)
3. This holds the back of the pump slide. Attaches to the underside of the body
4. Spacer. Holds the sides apart at the bottom
5. Put on spacer

2. Skeleton of the butt
3. Top of the butt
4. Bottom of the butt
5. Connect like so (only top is shown connected. Bottom goes on the same way)

This next part is sorta hard to show because this part of the stock is built into the body.

6. Boundary between the body and the stock
7. Middle of the stock
8. End of the stock

Simple

Add Pump and Ram Rod

P1040189.JPG
P1040204.JPG
P1040205.JPG
P1040210.JPG
This step is a little tricky.

Pictures:

1. How the pump connects with the ram rod
2. How they both fit into the gun
3. Back of the ram rod
4. The gray rod is the pump slide. It requires a little pulling to get it to connect between its place on the barrel and the one on the body.

Trigger

P1040191.JPG
P1040192.JPG
P1040196.JPG
A string trigger. Yeah... I know.......Not very creative. If anyone has a better idea, I'm open to it.

Picture:

1. The trigger. It works well if you put the string in between the orange connectors.
2. Trigger attaches to the gun
3. Gray rods run up to a block trigger. String ties on to the back (shown w/o the pump)

Handle

P1040112.JPG
P1040110.JPG
P1040217.JPG
I don't know if anyone has made this handle before, but if you have, you are hereby acknowledged.

Picture:

1. Make these
2. Combine
3. Connect to gun. There is a gray connector on the bottom, too.

Shell

P1040091.JPG
P1040092.JPG
P1040093.JPG
Main ammunition. To load a shell, just push open one end with your thumb and drop the shot in.

Pictures:

1. The shell
2. The shot
3. A finished shell. The rubber band is to hold the ends closed.

Adding Rubber Bands and Firing

P1040222.JPG
P1040225.JPG
P1040230.JPG
P1040232.JPG
Name says it all.

Pictures:

1. Ram Rod bands
2. Trigger bands
3. Bands for the block
4. Bands on the pump
5. How the shell loads into the breech

The ram rod must be pumped before you can push the shell into place. When doing so, swing the shell down into the opening, and the sides should be lifted out of the way by the red connectors on either side, allowing the shot to be lined up in the barrel. To take the shell out, pump the gun and use your thumb to pull up on the black Y clip and swing it up.

If you have two shells, it takes roughly nine seconds to fire two shots.

6. The shell swung into place

Be warned! You will lose green rods when firing this. I suggest you fire into corners in brightly lit rooms to minimize this risk.

Stand

P1040087.JPG
P1040088.JPG
An optional step. While I was building the gun, I noticed it was none too good at standing up by itself, so I made this little stand to hold it. Useful for display purposes, or for holding the gun steady while modding it.

Pictures:

1. Front
2. Side

Place under the pump.

Congrats! You now have a cool shotgun. Please comment and rate. Also, I think it would be awesome if anyone improved on this. It's sort of a new concept, and it would be great if people developed it.
