That is one of the coolest things you have ever made!!!!!!!!... I LOVE THAT PISTOL!!!...
YOU COULD MARKET THAT THING...
For real. There will be a huge market for that.
Yes I want one!
And a hip holster for it would not be all that bulky. Great for backpacking.
I notice you can easily double the draw weight by replacing the slide with a pull cord with a 2:1 pulley. Just put the pulley at the front, the cord anchored at the back, looped around the pulley and then back. Then the pull will travel twice as far with half the force of the draw weight. Since the crossbow is so short, doubling the pull length is quite practical.
That's genius! I know that the WT mini striker has a pull cord that's setup like you described and it has 120lb draw weight (60lb after pulleys). It's also small, but bigger than this obviously, and doubling the drawing distance still isn't even remotely an issue at that size. Since thats the case, it definitely shouldn't be an issue on something absurdly small like this. You could possibly even get away with adding another couple of pulleys and make it even more powerful being as short as it is. Of course then youd have to figure out where to put them all, and how, or if, you will hide them. You'd probably need to make a few parts thicker or out of metal to handle the extra forces too. It'd be one of the coolest crossbow pistols of all time though. Imagine a pistol crossbow like this but with 240lb of rubber band resistance and a 60lb pulling weight. Even if it had to be a tad larger itd be ridiculous.
@@alexcrowder1673 look at roller spearguns. add one more pair of pulleys in the rear and you're good to go. complicated thing though, wouldnt withstand mil std testing :P .
Does this work with rubber bands ??
Would it be possible to make it even stronger than just double ? Without increasing the size that much
Ich muss ehrlich sagen ich mag diese videos wessentlich lieber. Die technik das design dahinter bei solchen selbstgebauten prototypen ist einfach interessant
His laugh brings me joy every time.
The crazy thing is, if someone made this out of metal, it could be smaller, stronger, and have more rubber band or pulley strength. This could be a legitimate stealth weapon that’s even quieter than what video games pretend suppressed guns sound like.
You are right that most suppressed guns are not nearly as quiet as games would have us believe but there are exceptions. I recently watched a guy fire the MP5SD6 which, admittedly, is famous for how incredibly quiet it is, and it actually sounded as quiet as some suppressed guns in games. I was very impressed.
@@Likexner Indeed the MP5SD is a very quiet gun. Its original patent states that it can reduce the shot's sound to 70 decibels (around a loud human conversation), so in terms of a normal gun's standard (easily over 150 dB; a whooping x256 increase in "perceived loudness for average humans" compared to 70 dB) it's very quiet.
Although keep in mind in the real world it's kinda hard to quantify loudness, as there are lots of variables that can affect it. Shooting indoors, for example, can reflect sound in odd patterns allowing it to be more noticeable than an open field, as well as the general vigilance and skill level of soldiers who are trained to perceive certain sounds.
Sadly you'd have to have pulley systems and a very long pull cord and you'd still get an extreeeemely short power stroke due to the length of the crossbow pistol. With short power strokes you lose a ton of power.
They will be made soon. Gives new meaning to " rubber band gun".
Subsonic?
Wow! Thats super cool! Would be great as personal protection while motorcycle camping without worrying about legality issues of a firearm!
DOnt worry, theyll ban these too eventually.
@@Likexner true, but existing ones could just as easily be grandfathered in.
@@Likexner This is an example of how harsh control laws like in Germany cause proliferation of weapons that comply with the law.
If you surrendered your guns they'll take these off you too.
@@iamshredder3587 never surrender, but if you go out in public with one in California and use it, you can expect to land in prison even if you are simply defending yourself. Unfortunately. Prime reason I'm leaving to Alabama!
A Joerg Sprave video is a Christmas gift indeed. Thank you!
It is bittersweet when our creators careers take off and they have less time for videos
The weapon laws in Germany a stupid af
He should have dressed in full Santa 🎅 costume. The Gift that keeps on giving... And the laughter from Ho Ho Ho to HAHAHAHA
You will never run out of ideas. Honestly you could design a lot of crazy and useful tings outside of slingshot's at this point with such skills. Such impressive work and growth over the years.
Would love to see a clockwork crossbow or slingshot.
the walking dead should have hired this guy 😁
@@dataphoenix8004 Nah, im glad they didnt. Hes too good for them.
@@Likexner you would think they would start using these types of weapons by now but no they use loud firearms with no ear plugs and 100lb women shooting a desert eagle with perfect aim 😁 they all have perfect aim
BAD MON TING
I love your laugh lol, I recently purchased broadhead bolts for my pistol crossbows, wow! They go straight through my target.
Sweet! Now modify the front rubber attatchment by changing the wood blocks for pullys! Just like roller spearguns. And you will have a lot less recoil and more power.
Yeah, so this. I'd love to see something like this combined with a compound bow/sling approach (pulleys). I'm sure it could be done, but would be more complex. Imagine if you could pull off 80-100lbs with something this short?
@@irisdogma8174 you could, but would add to the complexity and bulkiness. hard to cram so much stuff into so limited place :(
Joerg, you never cease to amaze! I could not believe that pistol was made from wood! You are genius! Can't wait for someone to make that a printable model. You are awesome sir! Merry Christmas to all!
merry xmas brother!

That's very cool! your creativity never ceases to impress us Joerg!
Good to see how were getting more and more efficient, smaller and better with our homemade bows / crossbows. It's so cool to be witnessing this progress.
I love your desing. Especially the trigger mechanism, to get it as short as possible, is a work of genius. Well done!
This is the coolest thing! Also Joerg, still recommend researching into cobra gas spring compact bow. Really cool design
videos like this have to be 3x for me
Brilliant stuff! Such ingenuity, enthusiasm and humour! Definitely legit!
Merry Christmas from Wales, UK!
Absolutely *brilliant* , Joerg!!! Thanks for sharing this!
Wow! I definitely want one of these. I liked the Adderini for its slim design but this is fantastic. This is so small that it is genuinely a pistol crossbow. I really hope a company or 3D printing expert makes this. I want one!
Dostum tam olarak istediğin şeyi tasarladım, 20*14*3 cm boyutlarında 5 atışlık bir manual tabanca.
Great work as always Joerg. Top notch innovative designs explained and demonstrated with good humour and quiet humbleness
Great video, thank you! The 3D printed "Adderini" from Lukasz is a beautiful weapon, and his 3D files are really impressive and worth the money!
Thank you and a Very Merry Christmas to you and your family, Joerg. I have very much enjoyed your videos over the past year and look forward to more of your inventions with you showing us " it's features ", lol. cheers buddy, take care and stay safe.😄👍
FANTASTIC ! You just answered a whole lot of questions that I have. Also, because of your channel, I have a rather impresive collection of bows and cross bows !

@@Aconitum_napellus are you cia? Cause that’s what the problem is. Cia , MGM and FGM. Ask for the information about it from the internet or the gods.
You've really outdone yourself with this one! This is why you are my favorite youtuber! I absolutely can not wait to see what 3d printed designs get inspired by this! As others have stated, a pulley assisted cocking cord could allow you to double (or more) the power of the pistol without increasing the strength required to cock it back. Since the drawing distance is so short to begin with, it'd be extremely practical for something like this. You could even add a few pulleys and give it 4 times the power bands. Even having to pull it back 4 times as far for a 4 to 1 advantage is still hardly any distance at all considering how short that pistol is. You could make it incredibly powerful, small, and still fire quickly! The only issues I can imaginw would be material strengths and accuracy taking a dive, since it would be so powerful with such a short power stroke and barrel.
Love the shape of the trigger on the design, 1911 style triggers are the best
This is surely without a doubt going to be the best seller of all time, Also a spring to auto retract the cocking mechanism would make quite a difference to the time it takes to fire the 5 shots i think
When I saw the ballistic gelatin, my hand raised on its own accord for a good friendly slap. Joerg never fails to deliver. Excellent pistol design!
11 years now and I'm loving every new product you design
What a great video. I love your invention and you answered all my questions!
I hope you are a millionaire at this point
Make a thinner plastic version covering the bands/springs entirely, it will fit a holster and could be carried under clothes.
That's probably about as thin as it gets
@@Meaty_Aberration Its made with plywood. If made with polymer or sheet metal, it would be even thiner. If it uses metal springs, you could keep it lock and loaded for hours and used it like a normal pistol.
"I dont carry firearms."
Best Holiday video ever. Your brilliance never ceases to amaze me... I can't wait for a couple months in the future to see another one of your amazing designs take production worthy shape.
I love the future!
And as always, I love your ballistic gelatin slaps
Your ingenuity is boundless, thank you!
Give it a few more months, it'll have spring assisted slide return, lock open after last shot and 50lbs more draw!
I always remember reading/hearing a quote from Roman military doctrine, that apparently said something along the lines of "2 inches in the right spot is a fatal wound". Personally, anything over 10mm in the wrong spot is potentially deadly considering arteries so that would definitely be deadly, well done
Hi Joerg, I have been watching your videos for about a year and a half and I think you are definitely an artist. I enjoy the ease with you appear to throw yourself into every project you undertake. I just wish I could buy one of your projects. I cannot do the same as you because of an illness; I don't have the full use of my right hand, which is my strong hand. Anyway, I can still enjoy watching you and the enthusiasm with which you carry out each of your projects. Keep it up, my friend.
Unglaublich mit was du immer um die Ecke kommst, einfach fantastisch. Ich hoffe, du bringst dieses feine, kleine Gerät in Serie. Beste Grüße
Always always coming up with something. I love to hear him say " let me show you what I came up with!" Accompanied by that hearty laugh of his. I love your content, and I hope you keep showing us bad ass content. I also hope you had a wonderful Christmas sir, if that's what you celebrate, and wish you a happy new year!
Cheers!

Great gun! Whats left - 10 bolt's magazine with clip's to recharge or even separate magazines.
Also there is a lot of space in the handle - for electrical batteryes - 2x18650 or even 21700, and small motor for automatical reload.
Full auto pistol crossbow?
@@GuitarsRockForever no, not possible in the pistol size. Semi auto with automatical reloading by powerful motor - like after 1 sec automatically ready for next shot.
Quadrocopters motors are light and powerful enough to deal with reloading, we just need to add light gearbox and mechanical way to tight a rubber.
I'm sure that pistol would kill, great idea to use plywood. 3D printing it would not be hard and a well tuned printer would be able to do it in 1 print. Then you would just need to add the cord and it would be ready to load... Kind of scary that we can now just print guns and gun parts as needed. Happy holidays and be safe with your new mini crossbow.
Being able to print a weapon is a moot point I think. You can build a pistol that fires real bullets from some pipe you can get at any hardware store.
So you could build a pistol without going through the hassle of 3D printing. That's why I think stricter gun laws won't change too much. A criminal who is inclined to build a dangerous weapon to kill is always going to be able to do so.
@@schwuzi strict gun laws like we have in Europe work by getting guns off the street.
in the US you have to verify someone's identity to determine wether they're legally carying.
in much of europe you can see if someone can legally carry a gun from a block away by their clothes.
criminals don't often walk the street armed here because they know if anyone sees them they go to jail.
even if they can get a gun, it's not worth the risk unless they know they absolutely need one.
@@schwuzi Very true, zip guns have been around for 50+ years. But I sill feel that buying all the stuff for a zip gun and then building it is not any were as easy as pressing the print button.....
Good Morning Joerg from a very damp and grey farm in Rural Hertfordshire UK. I'm going through a bit of a rough time right now as I'm trying to get better from Covid but I have pre existing health issues that severely compromise my immune system.
I can tell you with all certainty that your enthusiasm, your laugh and your "let me show you it's features" are the best medicine I could have today. Thanks for your video today, its really cheered me up and made me feel a lot more positive.
Danke schön Joerg
The Lancehead F1" Limbless Crossbow design would work if shrunk down to this size. It would need a lot of engineering but it could work. A top lever like the repeating crossbow could act like a goats foot lever but be integral.
yeah, but price of that is insane. one can buy good crossbow AND good airbow and would still be left some money for small.22 air rifle for one F1...
I am working out a printable design. Beautiful work as always Joerg!
Where will it be available?
@@aldia368 thingiverse or I can print most likely. I will update it’s almost done now wish I could post pics on here.
@@robertulmer875 i would Like to know The Name in thingiverse to Download it. Thank you
I will post the link here when it’s ready. I have been sick so I have not yet tested it.
Can you find the miniadder or make a nylon CF print for it? There is at least 8 people specifically wanting it
Dein Talent als Ingenieur is immer wieder beeindruckend. Mit diesem kompakten Schätzchen hast Du dich wieder mal übertroffen. Ich hoffe, das geht in Serie.
Fantastic as usual! Compliments of the season Joerg and hoping the new year will be even better.
Pax Dude.
The Glockensbow
Two things I would still like you to make: this tiny pistol crossbow, but wrist-mounted (becouse it's cool) and you could try to upgrade a pistol crossbow to be semi-automatic or fully automatic. In the Arrow tv-series (s1e8) the Huntress had gas powered ones
if gas power is involved, why even bother with strings/rubber bands? just make overpowered air rifle-sque weapon instead.
Sweet vid as always, keep it up Joerg. BTW, nice grouping at the end there! That was awesome!!
Joerg this is the best design ever !
Thanks and Merry Christmas.
"Hello and welcome..... hahahaha" awesome
It's crazy that the singshot channel has legit done most of the modern worlds R&D on crossbows.
And no misfires! I love your engineering. Hope someone makes a 3D printed version. Danke sehr.
I really love the fact that the community elaborate and innovate on your ideas, then you take those ideas for another innovation.
It would be even cooler if you made something that can return the charging lever so you wouldn’t haft to push it back, but then again it most likely will make it bigger, just a thought, awesome design love your channel STAY STRONG!!! 👍👍💪
You should try a drain blaster lol its for unclogging toilets and can hold over 6 bars of pressure I took one and hooked it up to a pvc barrel and it fires blowgun darts so hard that i shot an old skateboard deck with it and it passed all the way through! Insanely powerful and only like 20$ on Amazon
I think even 2 more inches of length would add much more speed or allow for a heavier bolt with more energy, excellent prototype.
And, as someone suggested, twice cocking length through grear ratio allowing for twice of the spring power. Then attach friendly name: "peacetool".
Joerg did it. An EDC crossbow. Amazing.
Until I recently found your channel, I never gave a pistol crossbow a second thought. But You sure have changed my mind about the usefulness of them.
I like this pistol very much,very well designed and compact.Where can I obtain the plans for this built ?
Those are little gems for christmass!!😉 Your videos are awesome Joerg, as usually...
That hearty laughter always brightens my day! That's an awesome little bit you made there, I'd love something like that to ward off the critters that get into my porch.
Frohe Weihnachten Jörg, how is the going man , big presents this year
Could it be possible to add a very-slight additional draw resistance, and attach a rubber to the cocking mechanism so that it would automatically return into its starting position? That would increase the firing rate!
Really impressive design! It really is as small as it could possibly be: the only way i can see it getting even slimmer is making one out of stamped sheet metal
I needed your laugh and energy today. Thank you buddy for the video. Happy holidays.
No gunpowder
Just a flex trigger
i hope a 3D model can get more capacity
Love your pistol design. Great job. 👍
Joerg: as always I just really enjoy your video. I started with the Sling Shot channel and have followed your problems with CZcams and the changes you have had to make. I am really sorry you like so many other legitimate contributors have had to endure the CZcams challenge :). You make a real difference to the way weapons such as these are presented and designed. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and that 2022 brings health and happiness to you and your family. Good on you.
joerg, could you built but instead of the rubber band why don't you use torsion base like the lancehead crossbow . I think it would definitely be possible
Hearing you talk about German crossbow laws is like hearing myself rage about NJ gun laws
Virginia is heading that way soon too, hence why I'm moving to Texas (not the only reason of course, but still a big one).
Maan... Mr.Sprave, when everyone thinks the crossbow-pistols are at their peak you just come out with something new. That's fascinating!
You are always a joy to watch and helps me with my next project

He has his own company already...
@@vllad74 - I don't mean a small online store, I mean I want him to be as big as Dicks sporting goods or Bass Pro Shop or something.... 😂
@@xpndblhero5170 I see. Yes, this is another story. If he does I am sure he will be able to sell a lot of stuff in US, but in Europe and the UK I am not so sure as weapons are quite restricted.
These are so awesome. So is my Glock¹⁹
Glock and Steambow are both from Austria. I can see a collaboration coming 😂
Damn, I really like this one! Hope this one will get a finished product version and will get mass production soon. I'm sure it will not lose with a Stinger and adder Crossbow in a market sell. Also since it is so small it can be mean it much more versatile to be carried around and also with a much simple mechanism it means it has a much lower maintenance effort compared to Adder and Stinger. Can be a good list for collectors or people who just want to enjoy simple target shooting things for fun, even I do not doubt it this mini pistol crossbow still can do small game activities just fine.
The hand gun is fantastic, very quiet very compact, close quarters take down 👍
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Love your entertaining inventions! Brilliant stuff! 😁👍
The others are crossbow-pistols ... this is a true pistol-crossbow.
I love that Germany-legal version a fan made. You have inspired so many makers out there.
That’s AWESOME! Now all ya need is a cool holster so you can carry it when you want great job love it!
Dude your enthusiasm is great. I love watching your videos.
Your videos are so good, I usually hit the "Like" button before watching the video!! Thanks for the great info and entertainment! Happy New Year!!
bravo Joerg, another great design and build!
Another amazing innovation. Keep up the good work Joerg! CHEERS!
“Let Me Show You It’s Features” lol never gets old 🤣👍
Sir, you are a genius and a skilful craftsman. The pistol crossbow is beautiful. Thank you for bringing such great ideas and make them come true.👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Adapting it from two ruber loops to twisting one slightly longer loop(8 or 0/0 or 0//0) might give more power. Plus if it's mostly 3D printed with two thin hardwood or Iron side plates it sould give it higher strength. Also if the darts are restricted to nothing wider than a pencil it sould not need to be that wide.
One idea that comes to mind is adapting most of magazines you show off, the lever angle looks to be very shalow Vs that spring. Also replaceing that static rod with a curved arm, might aply more preshure to the reload(faster?) automateing the reload maybe just a mater of adding a small cog on a spring.
Merry Xmas Jorge and thank you for all the products laughs and entertainment. Have a wonderful new year also
Fair play , things you made is absolutely amazing ,it's a talent and a pleasure watching you ☠️
18 shots, only one outside center mass. Yes Mr. Sprave, that's an excellent design! May the New Year bring you and yours much happiness.
My buddy showed me your stuff years ago and I have rediscovered you through the sliding legolini project. great work.
Im printing the adderini atm and im just getting my feet wet designing my own stuff. I think this will be my first go. I will send you one if it comes out well.
When Joerg points the bow towards the camera, it feels like he's about to shoot me.
You’re a genius, Joerg Sprave. A repeating pistolized arrow firing machine.Good work !
That is badass! Lol great video Joerg! Merry Christmas 🎄
Danke für das tolle Weihnachtsgeschenk Jörg 👍😁
You are in fact the John Moses Browning of archery. And history will confirm this.
