ESPER is a Mag-Fed Top-Slide-Prime Homemade Blaster design that uses elastic cords as a replacement for traditional compression (and extension) springs. They drive a plunger with a catch surface at its tail end. The mag release and sear/trigger assemblies also use elastic cord for return.

WARNING: This blaster MAY NOT BE SAFE FOR INDOOR PLAY. Even with the weakest string setting of 20-inches this blaster will easily shoot faster than 100+ fps. So keep this in mind as to where and when this blaster is used.
All of the parts can be printed with infill as low as 20% in PLA, but I would recommend printing in layers of 300 Micron or smaller.
