FAQS

What are your rubber band guns made out of?

We use almost exclusively HDF (High Density Fiberboard) in our designs. It is thin, strong, warp resistantant and dimensionally stable. It also cuts beautifully on our laser cutter.

Are your rubber band guns durable?

Generally speaking, yes. They hold up to standard use for a very long time and we have had many customers coming back to us years later saying they still play with them often. That being said, if it will be in the toy chest of a child who plays particularly hard, they certainly can be broken. HDF does not take particularly well to being dropped.

The bands keep getting stuck on the front end of my rubber band gun after firing?

If the bands are releasing from the back of the rubber band gun, but are getting stuck on the front end, the issue is with how the rubber bands are being loaded. Always load from the bottom to the top of the serrated back end. This ensures that there are no bands stacked on top of the band to be released, holding it down and preventing it from flying. Additionally, fire all rubber bands before reloading to prevent the bands from being pinned down.

Rubber bands are getting stuck on the back of my rubber band gun and not firing?

There are a couple causes for rubber bands getting stuck on the serrated back end of the rubber band gun.

1) The trigger is pulled but doesn't fully return. The rubber band gets stuck between serrations.

This could be due to a trigger return rubber band that has weakened over time. The trigger return rubber band can be replaced with a fresh rubber band that is the same size as the one used by the rubber band gun (i.e. a Disintegrator will use a #10 rubber band for its trigger return).

2) The trigger is pulled and the rubber bands lift, but do not pass to the next level of serrations.

The serrations may be too wide and the corners of the triangles are grabbing on to too much of the band. This can be solved by slightly shaving down (thinning) the serrations with some sand paper or a sharp knife.
