Rubber band gun Rubber band gun A rubber band gun, often abbreviated to RBG, is a toy gun used to fire one or more rubber bands (or "elastic bands"). Rubber band guns are often used in live-action games such as Assassins, in which they are common and popular toy weapons. They are also common in offices and classrooms. Rubber band guns have been popular toys that date back to the invention of rubber bands, which were patented in England on March 17, 1845 by Stephen Perry. This is the simplest form of rubber band gun. Its firing mechanism consists solely of a clothespin.
Rubber band gun a set number of teeth apart. Fully automatic mechanisms for rubber band guns are analogous to automatic firearm mechanisms, in that the energy used to drive the gun's mechanism is derived from the same source as that which provides energy to propel the projectiles (in the case of automatic rubber band guns, the potential energy stored in the stretched rubber band). Fully automatic designs pose significant challenges to designers, such as how to control rate of fire. A rubber band rotary gun consists of between 3 and 12 repeater RBGs arranged on a cylindrical "rotor" as barrels. The rotor rotates
