I went to toys r us, asked the snowflake where the six guns were. They didn't carry them, I told him.id just take the hand grenades then

I wanted to buy my nephew toy guns. Couldn't find them anywhere. My mom found some at the Dollar Store. Now that the kid is twelve, I want to buy him Japanese made airsoft guns. Brother and SIL won't let me. Poor kid.

We were having bb gun fights at 10 years old no safety gear nothing! Not saying that was smart but we survived.

We did the same after Platoon came out and Full Metal jacket. My little brother and his friends too.

65 years ago, our next door neighbors, who had no children bought me a Daisy BB gun for Xmas. They had my parents blessing, but something I’ve never forgotten.
Same here. Family friend bought me one 55 years ago. Parents weren't thrilled but they let me keep it.

In 1964 we lived very close to South Central Los Angeles - the Watts riots were going on. My Dad came home with a Sears 20GA for me and a 12GA for my brother - we were around 10 and 14 at the time. We still have those guns and treasure them.

I had a rifle nurf gun that was about 3' long with a bi-pod on it. Id set up in our living room in the corner and call my girls out of their room and light them up. It was awesome and they thought it was hilarious. To the point where they would actually collect all the darts for me and bring them back to me for me to reload the mag and shoot them again. They were 4 and 2 at that time.
