Bend in the manner shown in the figure.

The finished weapon looks like the one shown in the photo below.

Materials needed to make a paper gun

In order to learn how to make a gun from paper, follow the simple recommendations described below.

You will need:

• Scotch;

• A4 paper.

Instructions for making a paper gun

When everything is prepared, you can proceed. How to make a hunting rifle out of paper? Let's look into this in more detail.

1. Fold the sheet with a tube, fix it with tape so that it does not fall apart. Make another tube of the same diameter.
2. Roll a sheet with a tube, with a slightly larger diameter so that previous tubes can enter this one.
3. Insert sheets folded into smaller tubes, insert on both sides of the latter. Secure with tape.
4. Make another such long tube consisting of three sheets. Trim so that the length is the same, and glue them together.
5. Now you need to make a butt. To do this, take two sheets of paper, cut the same oblong trapezoid from them. Tape it well with adhesive tape on all sides. Insert and glue the butt between the tubes.
6. Glue the butt with a new even sheet of paper to make it look beautiful.
7. Twist two sheets into two separate thin strips. Form a circle from one. Fold the other in half and put it on the circle so that three centimeters are in the middle of the circle.
8. Insert this design from below under the rifle. You guessed it will be the trigger.
9. You can also make a sight by twisting another strip in a circle and gluing it from the top.

That's all. Now you know how to make a paper gun. It is quick and easy. And it will be interesting for the boys to look at the very process of making weapons.

And here is another interesting scheme, thanks to which you can also make a gun.

Paper gun that shoots

But many rightly notice that a gun that does not shoot is a very dubious and uninteresting toy.

Therefore, the following is an instruction on how to make a shotgun out of paper. And this task will be a little more difficult, but playing with such a gun will be much more interesting.

You will need:

Making firing paper weapons together

See how to make a paper gun.

1. Roll a sheet of colored paper into a thin tube and wrap it in a white tube. Cover with tape so that it does not break up.
2. Make a few white tubes: one 12 centimeters long, 6 tubes five centimeters each.
3. Glue all the tubes together so that the 12-centimeter is on top.
4. Make a sheet of colored paper square in shape, like a blank for origami.
5. Twist it into a small tube diagonally.
6. Insert one end into the first white tube and the other into the second.
7. Twist two white tubes of 20 centimeters. Cut holes in them at a distance of 5 centimeters from the edge. Glue together.
8. Insert a colored tube into the top tube.
9. Glue it all to the finished structure on top (i.e., to the 12-centimeter tube).
10. Insert the colored tube into the next 5-centimeter tube, bend its second end and glue it to the upper tubes. It should make a holder.
11. Using the next colored tube, draw a outline of the weapon by sticking it on the handle.
12. Form another colored tube, make a ring on its end, sticking it with tape. Pre-fix the elastic in this ring.
13. Put it into the second tube from above and pull the elastic on the opposite end.
    

Charge the bullets into the top hole and pull the trigger. Here is such a toy. Well, here we figured out how to make a gun with our own hands out of paper.

There are many different schemes and ways how to build a weapon from paper, and even one that shoots. Start with the simple ideas suggested by origami, moving on to more complex methods. Thus, you can assemble a whole arsenal at home and play with a large company until you get bored.

And such classes are also useful for children, because they develop hand motility and accuracy.
