Redstone Battle Rifle

Quickstart

1. Craft the Redstone Battle Rifle at a crafting table (recipe below) — it also unlocks automatically when you join a world.
2. Place it in your hand.
3. Right-click to fire. Each click launches one high-velocity bullet.
4. Watch the action bar — it shows your remaining ammo at all times.
5. After firing all 26 rounds, the rifle reloads automatically. Wait about 2 seconds and you're ready to shoot again.

Overview

The Redstone Battle Rifle is an AK47-style ranged weapon built from iron and redstone. It holds a 26-round magazine, fires fast projectile bullets, and handles its own reloading — no extra ammo items required. It sits in the Combat item group alongside other weapons.

What It Adds

The item has an enchantment glint, giving it a distinctive shimmer in your inventory.

How To Use

• Right-click while holding the rifle to fire one bullet toward your crosshair.
• A firing sound plays with each shot.
• The action bar displays your current ammo as Ammo: X/26 after every shot.
• When the magazine is empty, reloading begins automatically and the action bar shows "Magazine empty! Reloading…"
• While reloading, right-clicking shows "Reloading…" and the shot is blocked. After roughly 2 seconds the rifle is ready again.

Abilities And Mechanics

Bullets deal damage to any living entity they strike and vanish on impact with a block or mob. The rifle itself stacks to only 1, so each one is a single dedicated weapon.

Crafting And Obtaining

The recipe is automatically granted when you join a world, so it appears in your recipe book from the start.

Ingredients: Iron Ingots, Redstone, and a Stick.

Progression And Strategy

• With 15 damage per shot, a full magazine can eliminate most mobs very quickly — use the rifle for burst-damage engagements.
• Plan around the 2-second reload window; try to finish a fight before the magazine empties, or retreat to cover during the reload.
• The action bar ammo counter is your best friend — glance at it before every engagement so you aren't caught reloading at a critical moment.
• Because no separate ammo is needed, the rifle is always ready to use as long as the reload cooldown has finished.
