first you need to remove the barrel of the gun. this takes some unscrewing but make sure the the trigger and the firing pin is still working.

then ad a small strip of tape on the firing pin.

Nail Time

hammer a small nail where I did both in steps 1 and 2

one near the butt of the gun and the other at the muzzel of the gun

Power

now get 3 rubber bands and cut them in half
then tie them all together for one big rubberband
once that is done tie a loop knot in one of the ends

then place it on the nail and pull backwards while pulling backwards put a piece of tape over the rubberbands

And now you are done with the gun

now you need to make the darts

get the skewers and flatten out the blunt end
then make at least 3 fletchings for each dart
next you just tape them on

repeat this step as much as you want

image six is my quiver
it is just a paper towel roll with tape at the bottom

Loading and Firing

all you have to do to load it is cock the firing pin pull the rubber band back and put it behind the tape then load a dart and pull the trigger. if the darts get blunt after awhile just sharpen them with your knife.

i am not responsible for any thing that you do with this gun.
