Same. We smacked a few rounds of.38 with a hammer once and really pissed off the neighbor when the bullet bounced off his garage. Good times. Don't even get me started on acid bombs. There was patches on the lawn where grass didn't grow all summer.
There was the one toy that was shaped like an aerial bomb -- with the fins and everything -- that would hold a cap and detonate upon impact. I still remember the day one of the kids in my middle school took a 12-gauge shell, sawed off the shot part, and loaded the charge into that toy. The vice-principal confiscated and dropped it on her shoe walking back to the office. I hear it blew a hole the tip.
A lot of toy guns used to look real. Back when the cops could have some confidence a child wasn't shooting at them with a real one, they didn't shoot children.
I remember riding my bike to the dollar store and buying one when I was a kid. And then going across the street to the liquor store where they sold nickle candies and buying candy cigarettes.
My grandad gave me a toy metal revolver. Big ass cowboy .45. Looked almost exactly like the real thing except it was missing the wooden grips. I took it to school with my in 1987 or 1988 for show and tell. The teacher was like "cool!"
Imagine what would have happened if I did that today?
I have thousands of rounds(check ebay often) 3 Western Holster sets with pistols and 5 Rifles,two of which are saddle scabbards. 2 Lugar pistols,one german holstered with belt and bayonett knife(plastic) Assorted pop guns,cork guns and early RedRyder BB rifles and pistols. Yup dirt......
Plenty for nostalgia. If they said it would hurt you in the 60-70's I collect it. Played with my Evel Knievel stunt cycle last weekend. Fuck off adulting
