NICE! With capital letters.  Great job Anthony.  This is exactly what my ZERO
needs right now, a nice double-barreled heave rifle (not that I dislike the
Gallet Gun II but it really doesn't match the Gundam).  Where do you live?  If
you could let me borrow that cannon for a day or two I will even go out and buy
more Lego sets to upgrade the arms to hold such a weight (shouldn't weigh more
than 3 pounds considering the pieces that you are using, right?).
Well like a said, good work, and if you live anywhere near the Bay Area, please
lend me that cannon : )

Have fun building.

being rainbowed (and that'd just look dumb.) I did get as far as building
the Beam cannon for it before I gave up. I called it the BAAR because it
looks like some distant relative of an AK-47. The hardest part was building
the Magazine release. it doesn't release on command, you have to grab the
mag, pull back slightly and then down, but it won't come out without
breaking otherwise. the detail pic is rather fuzzy, but i used four small
shocks set at two depths and linked in pairs to hold the mag's lock
mechanism against the technic pins that support it... I suppose you'd like
to see it, wouldn't you...
