My First Steampunk Nerf gun

[7HEUSEDB3RTH]

I am giving it to my brother for his birthday.

How is it, and how can I make it better?

I took out the air restrictors inside.

Interestingly painted weapon! Did you have to do that yourself? I didn't think they came in those colours.

Also interesting, there's a big red button on your keyboard in the first two pics. Is that the 'eject' button from the internet when all seems lost?

 

[7HEUSEDB3RTH]

Yea, I painted it myself.

And it is the eject button

 

[Kevin]

That is cool!

Did you paint any of the missiles?

 

[7HEUSEDB3RTH]

I put black sharpie with silver stripes on the darts, but I think paint would weigh it down too much.

Yeah, you're right... paint would definitely decrease the 'fun' factor if the missiles did not shoot far.

I suspect your brother, if he is into steampunk, will love it either way.

I'm also making a 'future retro' gun and I'm building a fort in the woods. I am 10 years old again

That's a very cool weapon, you made a nice movie quality prop there pal.

Very cool gun! I'm working on a steampunk 'Robot Monster' costume.
