How to Make an Origami Gun

The origami gun is very easy to make. Follow the photo diagrams below and start folding.

Start with a rectangular (or square) piece of paper, and fold it in half from top to bottom as shown below.

Fold the paper from left to right, then unfold. Next, fold the left side down at 90 degrees as shown below:

We want to fold the right side down at 90 degrees also. The following four photos show how to do this, to get the right side to be same length as the left:

Now make the handle of the origami gun by folding the right side over the left. Next, get another piece of paper and repeat steps 1 through 5 to form the barrel of the gun.
