K'NEX Highpower Rifle
This has a lot more power then a standard block trigger. It gets that power by having track the bullet travel's on instead of the normal way of having a lot of connector's on a rod.
The connectors on a rod bend more easily and that decreases the power ALOT!, Because if you have the barrel bending 1/100 of a degree the barrel will not line up and the bullet will hit every single little bump. This causes for a dramatic loss of power.
By utilizing track in the right way you can give a gun power because the track basically just guides the bullet and descent give it a lot of friction. Because of that the bullet is able to get alot of power and range(You have to take in to account, the mass of the projective). Also the track calls for different and cooler bullet types.
Pros:
Great Power
Good Grip
Realistic Trigger System
The Gun Itself Holds 6 Of My Deer Slugs
The Gun Looks Cool
Pop Out Bayonet
Cons:
Hmm...lets see... oh I have one, the gun uses a lot of pieces.
Pieces:
Connectors:
blue 3d connector 2
white connector 18
yellow connectors 144
green connectors 10
red connectors 24
light grey connectors 16
orange connectors 60
grey connectors 53
Rods:
grey rods 2
red rods 11
yellow rods 9
blue rods 32
white rods 78
green rods 220
Miscellaneous:
tan locks 2
black hands 22
blue spacers 2
Total: 708
All in all the pros completely weigh out the cons. Please build and rate!

Do not aim at anything of value(Like windows :-)

Step 1: The Barrel
The biggest and most important part of the gun, it also uses the most pieces. If you can't build the barrel don't even bother building the attachments.
It is a little changed since the original, but it is still has one basic design.
Pieces:
yellow connectors 62
red connectors 2
white connectors 4
orange connectors 18
white rods 48
green rods 113
Total: 247
Good Luck
pic 2: build all these
pic 3: connect them toghther to make this.
pic 4. make 18 of these.
pic 5: build the track.
pic 6: connect them all together.

Step 2: Barrel Part 2
These are reinforcements of the barrel. Without them the barrel would still bend from side to side. This also makes a track on the outside that the deer slug will ride on. This also creates a bottom that almost all the new features connect on.
Pieces:
orange connectors 22
yellow connectors 15
blue rods 9
red rods 2
light grey connectors 4
white rods 3
green rods 46
white connectors 10
grey connectors 20
blue spacers 2

Step 3: Bayonet
Made to look like a knife. It is the best I could do that would fit and work in the spot it was put in.
pieces:
red rods 2
green rods 2

Step 5: Ammo Holder
Ammo holder: One of the things on here is not seen anywere else(correct me if i am wrong, also it is different then a mag). Holds six of my deer slugs. This is not required but reccommeded.
pieces:
yellow connectors 45
black hands 22
orange connectors 18
dark grey connectors 18
light grey connectors 12
green rods 30
blue rods 12
grey rods 2
red rods 2

Step 6: Mechanism
This makes the gun the way it is. Most inportant part there is. It works by having the hammer and the trigger progressively turn the cog wheel. Do not get this wrong!!!!
pieces:
white connectors 4
orange connectors 4
dark grey connectors 7
green rods 19
white rods 10
red connectors 4
yellow connectors 3
blue 3d connectors 2(is reccomended for comfort but can be substuted for white connectors)
tan locks 2
blue rods 5
total: 60

pic 7: add pic 5 and 6 on to pics 2 and 3

pic 7: add pic 5 and 6 on to pics 2 and 3
Step 7: Handle
The part inside of the handle is really important. Do not, I repeat do not replace the green connector with a different connector, it will make the trigger hard to pull. A white rod on the trigger rests on the green connector in the cocked position. This places the other white rod on the end of the cog wheel making the trigger easy to pull.
pieces:
yellow connectors: 6
white rods 10
green rods 6
green connector 1
red connector 1

Step 10: Adding the Rubberbands
Add the rubberbands in the spots shown.
Step 11: How to Load
Pull rubber bands back on to cog wheel. Pull ammo off of the ammo holder. Pull back the hammer and pull trigger. I am not liable for anything you brake or harm using this gun. Have Fun. don't for get to rate!
