Someone here posted a link to one of this guy's videos several months ago, and I have subscribed and followed him ever since. He makes working, fully-functional firearms out of paper and household items. He shows amazing talent and creativity. Here's his latest vid;
Paper 1911

Wow!!!

Is he trying to make it an actual functioning firearm?

 Yes, albeit at lower pressures. He makes homeade cartridges too, usually with a pencil tip for a bullet. Check out his other vids and you'll see.

What process is he using to get the paper to take the shape he likes?

If I were a wealthy man, I would just go buy him a table-top mini-mill and lathe and some machining books.

A talented huckster with plenty of rubes on this site!

How did he get that slide to make that real metallic clanky sound when he moved it on the table?

And why does that one look EXACTLY like a real 1911 while all the rest of his guns look like  something that a 14 year old kid slapped together with paper and tape?

I am beginning to agree with you.  I have a couple of M-84 flash bang hulls on my desk.  I don't think a paper copy of one would rattle the way the one he had did when he moved it on the desk.  It sounded like metal to me.

What the hell are you talking about?  I'm listening to the audio on high end headphones right now and I don't hear any metallic sounds at all.

It would make that sound if he used a epoxy to seal the paper.

I think there were *some* metal parts on that, like the safety pins and lever, etc.

You notice how the camera keeps moving around on the close ups that keep you from getting a good view of the working parts of the M-84?  The camera starts out stable and then gets all wobbly when he is showing the details.

I call BS.

You're crazy. Spend time watching ALL his videos. He does plenty of papercraft that are not guns. He explains his technique in others. The kid is for real.

The first time I saw his K98, I couldn't believe it. It's insane.

Im not sure. Some of his models look handmade, others seem to look like airsoft guns covered in paint and paper, they are just too perfect. I looked through his vids and dont see one showing how he actually does these...

When he first posted that video, me admitted that it was a real Mauser with a paper barrel.

Later when he found out how many people believed his bullshit, he went back and redid it.

I love how he tells you that he made it out of paper and Elmers glue and then raps his knuckles on the stock.

Look at the one where he shows the Mauser trigger group. It's nothing like a real mauser (or airsoft, for that matter).

He'll have a real usefull skill if he ever ends up in prison

He been raided yet?

He is pretty damn talented. Hope he goes into engineering or similar field.
