Steps
- Get an 8.5 x 11 computer paper (loose-leaf paper works fine) and roll that paper so that the diameter is very close to {{safesubst:#invoke:convert|convert}}. Tape both ends as well as the middle.
- Fold each paper lengthwise 3 times.
- Take the first sheet and fold the paper crosswise. This will be the barrel.
- Get the second sheet of paper and fold both ends downwards, forming a 90 degree angle. This will be either the handle or magazine of the gun.
- Fold it in the center. This should be aligned so that it fits in your hand.
- Hold the handle of the in one hand
- Slide in the barrel. Do not slide it in all the way, leave about {{safesubst:#invoke:convert|convert}} sticking out.
- Tape or staple the sides. Looking like a gun now, right? If you don't have Tape nor a Staple, Use a rubberband to hold the middle of the handle.
- Add some details using a marker. This step is optional.
- Now cock it like a boss!

Tips
- This is only the basic structure, feel free to change any steps to your liking.
- You can use foam instead of paper. Besides, it's stronger.
- You can add attachments to your paper gun like a scope, an extension, and some legs to make a paper sniper. You can even make your own attachments.
- You can add an ammo box to the gun/sniper. To add an ammo box, fold the paper in 1/2 3 times and put your ammo box in-between the middle of the extension of the gun or besides the extension of the gun.
- When you're cocking it, don't cock it too far or it'll come out.
Warnings
- Don't bring these into school/public facilities that prohibit the use of firearms and/or firearm look-a likes.
