Description
Originally released in 2019 moving to printables
The Lepus is a fully custom designed Nerf blaster that is about as small as you can make it. It uses worker Talon mags and worker hurricane wheels and the compact n20 gear motor for the auto pusher.
I wanted a really compact full auto sidearm to be a companion for my caliburn or HPA blaster, using talons meant it was compatible with the mags I already use in my other blasters. Making the mag feed through the handle kept the size small and gave it an Uzi/Mac10 feel.
To add picatinny rail on the top use one of these rails

if you need a holster for it then use the poplok
