**/!\ CAUTION FOR RECKLESS/LITIGIOUS INDIVIDUALS: Rubber Band Gun intended for recreational purposes only. Never use in public areas. Always wear protective eyewear when handling this device. Excessive loading of rubber bands may cause structural failure. When shooting others with a rubber band gun, ensure they are adequately protected. I assume no liability for any damages resulting from improper use of this rubber band gun. /!\** The LCAR (Low-Capacity Assault Rifle) is my second Lego RBG, boasting improved functionality, appearance, and rate of fire. Through experience, I learned that ABS pieces have limitations when it comes to durability. This gun draws inspiration from the Beretta ARX-160 and Robinson Armament XCR designs. To activate the trigger, use an average-sized rubber band (refer to image). For more information on the mechanism and functions, a breakdown file is provided. My next Lego gun project will not be automatic; reloading both of my current auto RBGs takes significantly less time than expected. **STATISTICS** Fire mode: Automatic Fire mechanism: Repeater wheel regulated by escapement connected to sliding bolt Capacity: 4 rounds Ammo: Size 18 or size 32 rubber bands (I actually used size 35) **FEATURES** - Screw-operated ammo hook extension (exercise caution when handling this feature) - Enhanced appearance for a more realistic look - Prop grenade launcher attachment - Prop tactical flashlight accessory - Two storage compartments: one in the prop magazine and another in the grip (for the grip, carefully remove only the topmost pin near the bottom) - Folding telescopic stock (can also be completely removed) - Charging handle designed to withstand increased force - Effective range of up to 6 metres - Asymmetrical components can easily be swapped to accommodate left or right-handed users (stock pins, charging handle, prop flashlight) **TIPS** - For optimal performance, ensure the notches in the pin connectors used in the trigger face backwards to securely retain the rubber band that springs the trigger.
