Sniping Use!! How to Make a [Chopstick Rubber-Band Gun] Rubber Gun for Snipers

This is a rubber band chopstick gun designed for accurate targeting—perfect for anyone who wants to make a precision “sniper” version.

The materials are disposable chopsticks, rubber bands, glue, and a paper clip.

Cut the chopsticks into the required lengths for each part, glue them together to form the gun’s frame, and then thread the clip through the chopsticks to serve as the trigger, securing it with a rubber band.

Since rubber bands are only used for the clip section, it’s also ideal for those who struggle to wrap rubber bands securely on standard chopstick guns, which can make them wobbly.

Double-shot chopstick gun

I tried making a rubber band gun as a summer vacation craft using chopsticks! Easy and powerful! How to make a chopstick rubber band gun – a handmade toy. A rapid-fire chopstick rubber band gun craft you can make with things you have at home.

Let me show you how to make a double-shot chopstick rubber band gun! Prepare two chopsticks and use a utility knife to carve small notches at the tips where the muzzle will be, so rubber bands can catch easily.

Bundle a total of five chopsticks together by sandwiching those two notched chopsticks with three others on the sides, then secure them with rubber bands to form the barrel.

Make the grip and trigger section by cutting other chopsticks to shape and fastening them with rubber bands, and you’ve got a double-shot chopstick rubber band gun.

There aren’t any particularly difficult steps, so even younger elementary school children should be able to make it.

You can switch up what you launch—paper, stones, clay, slime, and more—and turn it into a science project-style exploration.
