(If you have not already seen
this post, I would recommend reading it before reading this one.) If you remember from that post I mentioned, I have 2 out of 5 books called Mini Weapons of Mass Destruction. For my 12th birthday, I got 2 more, so now I have 4 out of 5 of the books. (The last one is just tear-out targets, so I am not really interested in that one.) I have made a very powerful Mini Weapon out of one of the new books, called Build a Secret Agent Arsenal. The Mini Weapon I made is called a Candy Glock 33. It is a gun made out of everyday items (Index Cards, Balloons, Glue Sticks, Ext...) that shoots hard candies. (However, I am shooting little plastic BBs.) It uses a balloon in the back to pull back and launch the hard candies/BBs. The barrel is index cards, and there is a spot to put extra ammo right underneath the barrel. The handle is made of a large binder clip and of index cards. Here are some pictures:
This one shows the gun itself:
Here you are looking down through the barrel:
This is the same point of view, but with the extra ammo area open. (The cap of a glue stick is glued to a small binder clip, so it can snap open and closed.):
Here are my two new books. The one on the right is what this came from:
Here is the first page of the instructions:
I hope you enjoyed this blog post, and were interested in the Mini Weapon! It shoots really fast! You can barely see the BB fly through the air!
