How to Make a Cardboard Dragunov

By Society & Culture & Entertainment Last updated Saturday, May/11/2024

1). Draw an outline of a Dragunov on a piece of cardboard. Have a printed picture or photograph of the gun handy to use as a model when drawing. Account for the holes in the stock and the three holes along the top edge of the forestock, the center of the gun between the barrel and stock.
2). Put the tracing on a cutting mat or other suitable surface for cutting. Trace around the outline with a utility knife, cutting out the Dragunov shape. Cut out the various holes in the stock and forestock as well as in the trigger area.
3). Paint the cardboard Dragunov with brown, black and silver paint to look like the original Soviet rifle or paint it in a camouflage pattern for a militaristic look.
