T.B.A.R (Thunder Bolt Assault Rifle)

HPIM1652.JPG
Due to many requests I am posting the TBAR or Thunder Bolt Assault rifle.

This rifle is just packed with special features. Some new and innovative and some old. First off, it is actually two guns in one. A 16 shot gun with removable clip, and a single shot sling shot that can reach ranges of 100-120 feet. The 12 shot gun reaches ranges of 45-50 feet and has some mighty power behind it. Oh, and both guns are fired from the true trigger in front of the handle.

So this is my assault rifle. The features:
Two guns it one and both are fired from one true trigger.
It has a textured butt for combat.
One of the guns has a 16 round removable clip for large ammo.
The other gun is a single shot slingshot that can shoot oner 100 feet easy.
And it uses a new trigger system that can fire both guns itself.

As you may know this had a rail in the slidshow, but that got taken apart before I made the instructions. If you want to build it from the pictures, here is the link to the slideshow.

**EDIT** This instructable has got up to 4.03 stars.

Thanks,
