/!\ WARNINGS FOR STUPID/LITIGIOUS PEOPLE: Rubber band gun intended for recreational purposes. Do not use in public. If shooting someone with rubber band guns, make sure they are sufficiently protected. I am not liable for any damages resulting from improper use of this rubber band gun. /!\
This is my first ever rubber band gun made of Lego. Primarily focused on modularity, the MRBG (Modular Rubber Band Gun) is split into seven units: the pistol (core module), rifle barrel, stock, prop magazine, prop scope, magazine, and mag extensions (for use with rifle barrel). The mechanism is not mine, but is essentially copied from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3Xs-gbThss
The prop magazine can fold in half to look like a larger caliber mag, and there is another prop magazine for the pistol. This prop mag attaches to the bottom of the handle and stores inside of it when unused. You will need an average sized rubber band to spring the trigger.

Fire mode: automatic
