pretty shmick huh? the materials i used to make them were: two old rollerskate wrist guards, 2 NERF jolts, 2 20cm lengths of 15mm PE-X, 2 20cm lengths of 15mm insulation pipe, 2 keyrings and 2 lengths of string (approx. 9cm long but the optimum string length would depend on your wrist dimensions, gauntlet dimensions etc.)
a close up on the set up of the weapon, i used a two part epoxy (araldite) to glue the jolt and the coupler into place.
the trigger of the jolt is connected to a piece of string which is then connected to a key ring which goes on you middle finger, to fire simply pull up on the string with your finger.
a shot of the trigger set up.
the jolts won't fire stock darts, but instead like to fire my slugs which are just NERF foam with a washer weight and then more foam to reduce the pain upon impact (because believe it or not i do want these beasts to be war legal!)
finally here is my video review of them, it also includes an exciting announcement!
finally I'd like to give a big thanks to blackboarderv (BBV) for showing me the nano jolt tutorial video by nerfpause which you can see below
