How to make P209 FRONTIA (updated in 2020)
New P209 Frontia - Updated 2020
Video available
In 2002, I made a rubber band gun called the P209 BUL PUP, as well as another experimental design just before that to test its mechanism.
I later revisited this old, unnamed trial work and redesigned it, publishing it as a free plan in 2013. This redesigned model was named the P209 FRONTIA.
(Updated in July 2020) I redesigned the FRONTIA again in 2020 and released it as a free plan. The main improvement in this new version is that the trigger spring (rubber band) can now be attached easily without disassembling the gun.
Both the PDF plan and this article have been updated.
