Metalsonic’s Pocket Pistol Instructions

image.jpg
I discovered this gun a few weeks ago; unfortunately there were no instructions so I decided to make some. I have modded it slightly to make it more comfortable but, my mods are optional. It doesn’t shoot 70 feet for me but I bet it goes around 50. I give metalsonic 90% credit, I only modded it a bit.

Parts List

Connectors: 5 yellow, 4 white, red 6, green 2, orange 4, purple/ldark grey 2, light grey 1. Rods: white 16, green 28, bendy orange 1, light brown or red 1 (light brown is better because it is stiffer). Other: Y connectors 10, cut purple or a ball socket 1, cut red connector, the end of a rod or half of a green rod 1, either 8 or 9 thin K’nex tires or 3 LEGO tires (the size that fits on the wheels in the NXT and EV3 sets). Three thin K’nex tires are equivalent to one LEGO tire.

Build the second layer and trigger. I forgot the light grey connector, I show where it goes in the last picture. It goes in the back of the gun.

Add these on. Everything except the firing pin is optional. The green rod doesn’t need tape, but it helps. I FORGOT THE WHITE ROD ON THE VERY TOP OF THE GREEN PIECE ON THE BACK! Add it, it helps.

Banding and Using

Band it with #64’s and #32’s as shown. I fire it with 3 or 4 #64’s on the ram rod.
