Replica guns made of paper:
Fascinating, yet sad and pathetic at the same time.

since nihon cant have guns they have toy guns! -
I'm actually more fascinated by the strange, twisted Japanese-to-English translation that Google attempts with the text:
But yeah, for somebody to spend all that time constructing paper guns is pretty strange...Using these works, doing, as for the kind of behavior which threatens please do not make absolute e.g., it directs the bore to others.
Whatever problem by these works occurring, because this site side it is unable to owe all responsibility, please acknowledge.Comment

Its a cheap $2-5 substitute for kids who cant get real guns.... they probably mass produce these paper things and when you get em... you fold em yourself. The items you pick up at the grocery store in the toys section.
Grammaton could probably give a better explanation.Originally posted by KestryllOriginally posted by ivanimalJust be glad you are not his next door neighbor.

What's sad and pathetic is that if a kid brandished one of those paper guns here in California he could go to jail if he didn't get shot by the cops first.Originally posted by Ubergeek
When I was a kid, my old man (who had plenty of real guns of his own) made me toy pistols out of wood. I loved my pine Luger.Lucy at www.mesatactical.comComment

Actually, this has little to do with them not having real guns. This stems directly from the Japanese semi-obsession with creating models of everything. You know those plastic models of boats, cars, etc that American kids frequently go through a phase of building? The Japanese go well beyond that, get really creative with the paint processes, and even go so far as to research specific ships or whatnot so that they can get it "just right".
They're also the culture that gave us Origami, which is to say folding paper into creative shapes. You know, cranes, etc. If you cross the two, you get things like these paper guns.
When you look at these, don't think "gee, they want to wave those things around" - because they don't. See it as it is: they're taking a real life item with complicated contours, and re-creating its shape in a fairly visually correct way, using a fragile and difficult media to get just right.
If they want to guns to wave around around, they'd be using Airsoft. There are build-it-yourself airsoft guns (and non-firing replicas) which they get really intricate over.
Over there, modelling is a hobby that some folks REALLY get into. It's best compared to guys who really love working on their cars.Primary author of gunwiki.net - 'like' it on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Gunwiki/242578512591 to see whenever new content gets added!Comment

Ohhh, the possibilities
Is it an Assault Rifle, or a Mache'gun?
Does it load from a magazine, or a paper Clip?
Do you want to put it aside until The Sheet Hits The Fan?
If it's made from origami that means it has a folding stock.
Is it designed for Stationary targets?
HP or Ball Point?
Are they all faithful copies, or do some of them push the envelope?
Can you get advanced training at "Font Sight"?
Will the safety protect you from a paper cut?
(Will I get reamed for all these puns?)-----------
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.Comment
