Description
This is a blaster kit that I designed for the Nerf Rival Knockout. This blaster has a few variants. There is a single Spring Thunder shell variant, a single Flypoint shell variant, and a Double Barrel Flypoint shell variant. The links to these shells can be found below: (Or can be bought from GDop26. This blaster was designed to need as few purchased components as possible. I was able to accomplish this by using 8 magnets and 1 or 2 o-rings. The blaster is assembled using the original nerf screws.
Credit to Meaker VI for the mounting Geometry into the KO. Without his work, none of the Platypus would have been possible. Check out his etsy here: Meaker VI

I named this blaster "The Platypus" because it has a tail that kinda looks like a platypus.
If you like this blaster, feel free to post about it on the r/nerf reddit and tag me @ u/RedCowl80 I would love to see it! This is also the best place to reach me if there are any issues with your printing or if you have any questions.
The instructions for building are inside the PDF document.
Edit 12/12/21: I have added an updated Hammer Latch with bigger holes for magnets. If you print the other variant and it is too tight (either because of supports or 3d printers simply not printing circles sideways well) this option should be big enough to allow for magnets to fit well and be glued in.
