The Firewheel is a FULL AUTOMATIC rubber band MACHINE GUN and is ;

MADE IN AUSTRALIA

 

*** PLEASE NOTE ***

Tasman Engineering Services Pty Ltd purchased the rights to produce the Firewheel in 2001, and substantially upgraded it, so that they could offer and support the Lifetime Guarantee below.

I turns out that there was a considerable amount of the old product in existence, which was produced back in 1979 (now 30 years old).

The old product was produced in only 2 colours, bright yellow and white, both with red wheels.

This old product is NOT covered by our guarantee.

The old product suffered from a number of problems ;

** THE SHOULDER REST BREAKS EASILY AT A POINT BESIDE THE FRONT HANDGRIP.

** MANY OF THEM WERE NOT PROPERLY GLUED AND TENDED TO SPLIT WHERE THE SHOULDER REST WAS CLIPPED IN.

** SOME OF THE TRIGGERS JAMMED.

** DEPENDING ON HOW WELL THEY HAVE BEEN STORED OVER THE YEARS, THE PLASTIC WILL TEND TO BE MORE BRITTLE.
ALL THERMOPLASTICS LIKE ABS DETERIORATE GRADUALLY WITH AGE AND MANUFACTURERS ARE ABLE TO USE THINGS SUCH AS ANTI-UV AND ANTI-OXIDANT ADDITIVES TO SLOW THIS DETERIORATION BUT CANNOT STOP IT ALTOGETHER (THEY HAVE A REGISTERED PROFESSIONAL ENGINEER ON STAFF)

** THEY MODIFIED THE BACK OF THE TRIGGER TO IMPROVE THE ACCURACY OF THE BANDS IN FLIGHT.

** THE QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL USED IN THE WHEEL AND FRONT PIN HAS BEEN UPGRADED AS THE OLD MATERIAL CANNOT WITHSTAND THE SHOTGUN MODE.

** THE SHOULDER REST HAS BEEN MODIFIED TO BE EASILY REPLACEABLE, AND NOW CLIPS IN AND OUT.

VIEW DEMONSTRATION

(90 Seconds)

This is a high quality rubber band gun (RBG), with a UNIQUE RANGE OF FEATURES ;

* Variable Rate of Fire : With a little practice, you can accurately control both the rate of fire in full auto, and the length of bursts, or you can elect to fire in a single-shot / semi-automatic mode.

* Shotgun Mode : Select this mode and the whole magazine unloads as a single "shotgun charge".

* Closed-Barrel Design : This enables the Firewheel to look and function like a real firearm.

* "Equalising Ridge" : This is built into the internals of the barrel and corrects the flight of the bands as they are released.

* Accurate Sights : These are integral with the "Equalising Ridge" above, and enable a true line-of-fire sighting. You sight down the actual flight path of the bands.

* Folding Stock : Combined with the sights, this enables the Firewheel to be used as an accurate sniping rifle.

* Spare Parts : These are available at nominal cost, but seldom required.

* Owner's Manual : Includes detailed instruction on using the Firewheel, helpful information, and a range of games to play.
