6-Shot Blaster (Semi-Automatic)

Build Your Own Six-Shot Blaster with Compliant Mechanism!   16.12.2024 Hotfix: Updated the trigger's spring design for improved durability and extended lifespan.   This 3D-printed Six-Shot Blaster is a simple, fun project for makers of all skill levels. Here's how it works and what you need to know to build and enjoy it: One-Part Blaster & Magazine: The blaster is designed as a single piece, so there’s no assembly required. The magazine is also 3D printed and holds 6 bullets. Important Printing Tip: The magazine requires a brim during printing to ensure success (my prints failed without it). After printing, make sure to carefully remove the brim for smooth operation. All parts are printed using PLA material. How It Works: Load the magazine with 6 bullets, slide it into the blaster, and you’re ready to go! Once you fire the last shot, the magazine drops out automatically. You can then quickly slide in another pre-loaded magazine from the top. Performance: Using the strong version, the blaster can shoot up to 3 meters. It’s loads of fun, especially when paired with the included 3D printable targets. Safety First: Please don’t aim at animals, people, or anything fragile. This project is not suitable for children under 3, as the bullets are small and could pose a choking hazard.
