Double Tr18 Instructions
Hello, I made this from Dirtyboyy's pictures he posted. I managed to make it from the five pictures he posted. (Some spots are mine like the modded front sight and the handle and some inards). It's a double Tr-18. I would like to say that 5% credit goes to KillerK for the turrets and some of the trigger, 80% to Dirtyboyy for the gun, and the rest to me for making the instructable. This is my first of hopefully many instructables so don't hate. However i will accept constructive criticism as I do not know how to really make an instructable so I am hoping that this turns out just fine. O.k. so on to pro's and con's!
Pro's
-Packs a punch
-Shoots white rods 120+ feet. (Yellows 50+)
-Has two turrets of 17 shots. (34 total)
-I have instructions to make it have two triggers or to just have one. (I prefer the single trigger)
-It looks very cool.
-Comfy handle and foregrip.
-Sights for shooting both barrels at once and also individual sights for each barrel.
-Ramguide
-Very sturdy
-Good rate of fire
-Turrets don't sag!
-Fun to build
Con's
-Takes a long time to reload.
-Uses a lot of pieces. (Sorry but i did not make a parts list)
-It's kind of heavy.
-Uses like ten broken white rods, two broke red rods, and one broken y connector. (These are optional though except for the red rods)
-May be too big for some people.
-Need to hot glue and tape the ram or it will blow up from the force of a lot of rubber bands.
Stats anyone...
-Weighs exactly 4.5 pounds.
-27 1/4 inches long. (Without ammo in)
-Width of about 10 inches at turrets and 3 inches at stock.
-11 layers thick. (Yellow rod)
-Shoots white rods 120+ feet.
***DISCLAIMER*** KillerK, Dirtyboyy, and I are not responsible for any damage that may be done by this weapon.
DON'T FORGET TO RATE!!! (Please tell me if there are any problems with my instructable and I will try to fix it.)
O.k. so build it...NOW!!!

Front Barrel (Big Block)
Alright so I took this apart and took some decent pictures of what to make. Have fun. (You will have broken fingers by the end of this step.) Some spots are marked to put reenforced red rods. They are optional but recomended. Follow image notes.
1. What you will make
2. Make this. It's two red rods full of white connectors connected with 2 green rods. TIP: When connecting the two rows of whites together only use one green rod on each side. Don't fill the whole thing up.
