I think you mean definitely, because defiantly means "in a rebellious manner". :wink:
Actually, I think "defiantly" is more appropriate when it comes to the gun...
Very Good Job, and Welcome to Spudfiles.

Way overkill but beautiful work nonetheless! I assume this is a muzzle loaded coaxial design as you don't show much detail of the rear end of the thing. The shoulder mount and all of the sighting and electronics are very well integrated.

I will say this.....it looks really heavy... 8) Any performance video will be appreciated as usual.

Welcome to Spudfiles Tom! Looking forward to more work like this from you.

It looks cool, but its so busy looking it confuses the hell out of me. Good prop work. Is it solid steel? A video would be awesome.

No, its PVC... shoulder mount made from craftwood. There are steel plates around the combustion chamber, for safety.

Well, crap. There goes my summer project.

That's not too heavy - but it's not exactly light either. 17 lbs is no small amount.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

That's not the point here. 17 lbs would be very light for a pedal bike... but for what this is (which isn't a 1 year old kid), it is on the heavy side.
