This is a sniper rifle i built. It fires pretty fast, but don't ask how fast, around 300. I need a slightly smaller ID of the barrel b/c its slightly larger than 6mm. I don't have damage pics and i am working on putting on a CO2 connection
For more in depth info go to: http://www.instructables.com/id/RAMBO/RAMBO.pdf

Co2 is a no no with pvc. Remake it with copper then you can use co2. Nice gun.

I'd be more inclined to think it's his bona fide design, after all ripping the pics would have presumably meant editing out those little yellow squares, and there's no evidence of that.

As an addendum to the "no yellow squares", the photos he's provided are of a much higher quality than those in the PDF, and although a good photoshopper could remove the yellow boxes reasonably convincingly, you can't get back lost quality.

I'm getting far too quick with spotting these things. I think you're rubbing off on me...

... and I'm now so quick that I can see that SOMEONE would find a second meaning in "rubbing off on someone".

Gotta love the spudfiles humour. :D

Kinda nice gun though.
Though the name follows up another million of cannons called sniper rifle.
From which we all know that this is wrong as there is no rifling, and the accuracy surely doesnt match that one of a sniper.

If you remove the RAMBO.pdf from the link it takes you to the instructables page:
http://www.instructables.com/id/RAMBO/

If you save a picture from there, it doesn't save the yellow squares with it...

I'm not implying anything, just saying.

Well, in all fairness, his icon does suggest it's peanut butter jelly time...

It hasn't been PB&J time for a few years now.

Get with the times, Jack.
