Modular Paper AR15 V3by ~Hoborginc

Artisan Crafts / Folding & Papercraft / Models

This is an AR-15 papercraft, the third iteration of a long project that has undergone several stages. I started posting these on /po/ a while ago, with the intention that it would be a modular thing that the community could add new parts to.

It is fairly detailed and takes a lot of paper, so you have to build it gradually and piece-by-piece. A classic M4 configuration, for example, would be 27 pages.

There are a couple of different styles for stocks, handguards, etc, and most things are available in black, tan, colorless, and sometimes gray versions. There are flattop and A1 upper receivers, as well as different barrel lengths. If yo want to build a longer barrel, note that there is no proper M16 handguard, although putting two carbine-length RIS handguards makes a rifle-length one.

The package is rather lightweight because I've omitted most of the V1 and V2 parts. The furniture and sights that haven't been replaced are still included though, so there are still a couple of hand-drawn pages.

FAQs:

1. What kind of paper does this use?

For thickness, I'd recommend something thicker than printer paper, but experiment to see what fits your needs best in regards to color quality, foldabiliy (esp for curved parts), etc. The key is that it's moderately stiff.
In terms of size, use regular printer size. These vary by country, but as long as it's about 8 inches wide, you're good. Make sure the image takes up the whole page.

2. I don't want to use whatever filehost the download link sends me to, can I still get it?

The package itself is too large to send completely by email, but if you narrow it down by requesting a specific color scheme (black, tan, gray, or white) or a specific configuration, I can email you those files.
Additionally, if you know a better filehost, feel free to suggest it.

3. Where does X go?

If the notes files and construction photos aren't clear enough, just ask here and I'll explain. However, make sure you look at the photos first, since a picture is better than a written description.

4. There are no holes in the takedown pin hook.

My apologies. The holes were trapped under the colored layer and weren't displaying properly. I've recently uploaded a corrected version.

Yo, I printed this one but my printer ran out of color ink, would you mind if I'd put camouflage in it? XD

thanks...

Sure, the details of the build are an opportunity to do whatever you want.
It looks like that builder also made a custom trigger and a custom magazine, so there's a lot more you can do in addition to changing the color.

Sir, what size did you use in the BARRELS? Like your example on the picture. Is that 11.5 or 14.5? Reply Please! im working on it.

~Hoborginc Apr 22, 2013

The pictured barrel is an 11.5.

Man, are you guys going to get sick of me posting (lol). The CQB site that I was thinking of might not be able to be made out of paper now that I think about it but the Burris Fastfire or any other along those lines would work if someone can design the paper model of them. Okay, I am now officially done. Thanks for indulging me.

~wally0923 Apr 17, 2013

Just another quick note. I have come across some additional pieces that I think people could modify to work with your AR-15 Model. As someone who has used the real thing, I think these mods would be great. An example of what I am talking about is the EoTech 511 which is a holographic site used on the flat top receiver. This is a wonderful sighting unit and I just happened to come across a full size paper model of one. Most may not know this but there is also a CQB sight for the AR-15 along the same lines as the EoTech but it is more like a long scope only shorter with flip up ports. The Koreans also have a 100 round double drum mag that can be used on the AR-15 in a team support role for suppression if a SAW is not available. Just some thoughts for reference or maybe future additions to an already great piece!
