  3. Step 3 Get a Bic pen and use pliers to take out the back and front so you have a tube.
  4. Step 4 Stick the Bic pen tube into the foam tube; nearly half of the pen should be covered by the dart.
  5. Step 5 Place the dart end into the barrel, push down on the dart as far as you can, then push the pen tube into the barrel.
  6. Step 6 Cock and shoot nothing a few times to ensure that it doesn't fall out.
  7. Step 7 Cock and shoot at your hand, if air pressure is present, good job!

    It may, but it is a little smaller than the Airsoft BB. If it doesn't work, you could try using a smaller pen tube.
