Small, light, open sight Arrow gun.

[Nomadic Pirate 66]

I had this in mind for a long time but I was waiting to get a .50 to put it together, unfortunately the price of guns nowadays is to rich for me.

So I got one of my three .357 and build it off that.



This particular gun actually started 6 years ago as a Pistol, it has gone through a variety of configuration and it ended up like this,...for now

She sports a 14.5" barrel that I cut down from a 20" rifle barrel, AR Grip, AR buttstock, I took a slim handguard from my AR9 that I don't use but I had to cut it down, the bullets holder is from Amazon and I think it's about 11 Bucks

She shoots the 350gr arrow at 475 fps @ 200 BAR, so if I would fill to 250 BAR it should easily break the 500 fps mark.

The Magnus Snuffer head has a cutting with of over an Inch, that is a devastating wound channel and this gun could take down any animal on hearth with this set up.

Bulletwise I shoot a 200gr flat nose, this way with the gun sighted in at 20 yards POI with the arrow is basically exactly the same as the Bullet

The gun is 28" long, 5 # all loaded up and when broken down fits in a small pack.



Perfect packable, lightweigh, tiny, powerful, rugged Hunter

Great setup Manny. Like how you customize your stuff for practicality.

Thanks my brother, I always try to make my guns mine so I can use them the best I can,....love to carry around this REX Mini-Carbines I have.

That is a beautiful setup. I have an arrow rifle which propels the arrow using a 22 cal Hilti blank. I've often wanted to get a pneumatic arrow rifle, but didn't know what was good or bad to get.

Thanks brother, I'm liking this thing quite a lot.

Oh nice looking gun! I just constructed a regulated .357 Texan to shoot arrows. It is amazingly accurate. At 25 yards I'm afraid to shoot 3 arrow groups because of damaging my arrows when the slam into each other.

thanks,.....yeah l never shoot group with arrows for that reason

She did great yesterday on a hog hunt,
perfect small, light, thick bush hunter

Arrow launcher Hog hunt.

So last week I finished this build https://www.airgunnation.com/threads/small-light-open-sight-arrow-gun.1267057/ Today I took her for the maiden hunt. I had a boar and a saw come down from the opposite slope to where I was hanging out, for a minute I thought once they got to the gulch...
