Weren't expecting that now were you?
Okay, I know. I know. It's ugly. It looks like a decapitated monkey. I don't care. Well I do, but please don't make that the focus of this thread.
Anyways, ^that^ is Ebrethil (or Master in the Ancient language according to the Inheritance Trilogy (wow I'm such a nerd I actually read books)). Yeah, I like it too. It's taken three magstrikes to get it to work right, and god knows how much time and money. I've been attempting to finish this for almost two months now.
A two-way brass pushbutton valve is used, as in Bob II, for the magstrike trigger.
You might have noticed that in the pictures the Crossbows internals aren't there. Don't worry, I have them. I'm just attaching the coupler right now. The Magstrike's bladder is lined with bicycle inner tubing, and can shoot off 2-3 clips about 40'. It's been windy, so it might have hurt or helped the range. Either way I plan to mod the clips soon, so I should get a little more distance. I also plan to do the piston mod to this; I'd be happy with 60'. I'll get updated pictures when it's completely done, and will try to take some clearer ones.
I know this probably won't fit alot of peoples style of play, but I'm always bent on having an insane amount of firepower.
So, Questions? Comments? Enjoy.

PS, sorry for the blurry photos. I really need to get myself a tripod (it's too big to put under the light I use for write-ups)
PPS, Keef, this is what I was reffering to in BitchX.
