Top-loading Shotgun Pistol

Hey guys, i just wanted to share this cool little shotgun pistol that i made with you. It has a pretty comfy handle and a double-ram. It also features a little 'flap/lid' which you flick using your thumb, which reveals the barrel's inside, so you can top-load the bullets into it.

Here is a video of it in action:

Theres that done, moving on

This is the little flap that when you push on the grey connector, it flips up revealing the top of the barrel, in which you load the bullets.

1. Make this
2. Another view
3. Make these
4. Attach them on (make sure they are on the right sides)

That was easy, moving on =)

This is really simple. (Use black rods for the rams if possible)

1. Make this
2. Another view

Well that was rather easy 8-) Almost done!

The is the back end of the barrel where the handle will attach to.

1. Make and get ALL of these things
2. Add 5 blue rods where shown onto this piece
3. Slide these pieces on
4. Add this layer next
5. Slide these other pieces on
6. Finally add on the top layer

Back end done, now the front end =)

This is the front end of the barrel.

1. Make these pieces
2. Add the blue rods onto one panel like so
3. Slide these things on
4. Add the next layer
5. Slide the other things on
6. Add the final layer

Front end done, now let's connect em together =D

We will combine the back end of the barrel (step 6) to the front end of the barrel (step 7)

1. Get the 2 barrel ends (duh!)
2.  Line them up like so
3. Connect them together
4. A view of the bottom of that connection

YAY! One more thing to make now, then we will assemble it all >:-)

This isnt really a foregrip, but it just strengthens the barrel and makes it look nicer.

1. Make these pieces
2. Attach all of those pieces shown
3. Add the other side onto the blue rods

Quick and easy, now onto the final assembly >:-)

Here is where we put the whole creation together.

1. Get the handle and the barrel, line them up like so
2.  Connect like so
3. A close-up of that connection
4. This is where the trigger(s) should slot into the barrel
5.  Get the flap/lid
6. Attach it onto these blue rods (You can put the flap on either side of the gun, depending if you are right or left handed)
7. Another view
8. ANOTHER view
9.  Get the foregrip thingymabob
10. Attach it on here
11. Another view of the foregrip
12. Slide the double ram into the barrel ends
13. Pull on the trigger and push it all the way in

Here is where to put the rubberbands

1. This is the trigger rubberband, make sure it is a REALLY strong and tight band, or else the trigger wont hold the force of the ram
2.  Another view of the trigger rubberband

I didnt bother putting in a picture for the ram rubberband as everyone uses different bands, therefore they all need different placements on the gun.

Congratulations, you have finished your top-loading shotgun pistol.

Please enjoy, and be safe while shooting. ALSO, wear safety goggles at ALL times. Haha, im just kidding, with knex guns, safety is our Number two priority, fun is number one =D
