THATS IT. although it seems simple when the rubber band is tight enough its goddam powerful. the only drawback is its hard to reload. i hit my friend with it once and it left this fricken bruise and a big welt. i also found it useful to put a screw on the underside of the end of the piece of dowel to hold when im aiming. how to use it: OK for those of you who arent intelligently inclined you put the BB in the sling part of the rubber band like a sling shot and pull it back into the peg. then when you see your little sister within 50 feet you press the peg. if you are finding it hard to get it into the peg and stay there i find it best to stick the part of the band just before the bb into the peg its alot easier and it stays there every time. if that fails youll have to move the peg closer to the rubber band. yeah and make sure you sont hit your self in the eye with a bb when your loading up {AAHH SHIT MY EYE!} diagram: peg ball bearing | | tape ____________________ __ rubber band | |_____ _/ / \ | ___ _____-#----0----@-_ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>| |>>> |___________________\_>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>| |>>> | >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>| |>>>| | | | | |____________________________________________________|__________________________________|___|___| | | | screw | Dowel ~ thanks to anyone reading my file the design and idea is entirely mine mearl man if you have any questions about this file or anything you think i should add then mail me at: mearl_21@hotmail.com
