Default Knex Wars
After 3 years after the Knex gun communities birth, a few high profile Knex gun builders from Ohio and Michigan brought themselves and their friends to Fremont Ohio to have the first internet organized Knex war. I call it a success. We're expecting to have a few more this year in Michigan and Ohio; you guys should try to make it to some.

Here's one of the videos from the day:

Pictures taken at the war

Pictures of a few of the guns that were used:





We got pictures and more video out there.

The first gun looks really cool, do you have any more pictures of it so I can replicated it?

Looks pretty fun, but I wouldn't travel 9 hours away to go to one.

Haha, so true.

Its a neat idea. This way you can compare guns and use them. Its nice to actually meet other knex builders.

Hmm...never tried making a gun before, looks like it could be interesting. I'll have to give it a try.

I was thinking about building some of these guns, since there's so many.

All the guns above are low piece, and very powerful and war effective.
