Step One
make the blowdart, actually this really isn't a blowgun instructable it's more of a blowdart instructable.
first make a regular paper dar, if you don't know how, refer to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ug0VusClPCs

Cut the Tack
use the scissors to cut off the small circle of plastic at the opposite side of the point. heavier duty scissors work best here.
Paper Dart+ Tack
this is where you cut off a small portion of the nose of the dart and put the tack into it. Make sure you don't cut to much of front of the dart off. once you put the tack inside, tape the two together.
Finished Dart
fit the back of the dart to the tube and cut off the back of the dart to the right size for the diameter of the straw/paper tube.
