When toys were toys and boys were boys

Anyone recall "Edison Giocattoli"?

Very realistic, youd load the mags with special cap strips...

I had an AWESOME O/U that you would put caps in the shells, a sniper rifle and a Luger with a silencer!

Yes, I was on the dock waiting for Marco Polo when he was returning from China with gun powder.

 

That's one funny reply. LOL.

The one in the video above was before my time... we played with these:

 

 

 

The steel Tonkas were great! I got sent to the principals office in kindergarten for clocking another kid in the head with a Tonka dumptruck. Good times

 

I had those water guns. Loved them to death.

I also had a battery powered Uzi water gun that shot disappearing ink. But my mom never bought more ink so it shot water

I had a bunch of entertec water guns. My favorite was a Mac 10 that has a threaded suppressor on it and a folding stock.

 

Also had the rpg launcher.

 

My favorite toy gun I had was a metal and wood bolt action replica. It had a spring loaded dummy round in it so when you opened the action you could see the bullet.

 

The kids on the block who I played guns with would make fun on my "old man gun"

 

Kid next door had a lever action that make a cool "FOOM" sound. Always wanted one like that.

 

I had the same "old man gun"! It was very realistic, wood and metal, I friggin loved that thing I used to carry it everywhere!

Old metal tonka trucks were great

How about the Gotcha! paint guns?

They were a lot of fun, but would jam more often than not.

Found a pic on the internet.

 

The Johnny Eagle Lieutenant 1911 came with one magazine & 6 rounds. The rounds were loaded into the spring-loaded magazine, just like the real thing. You pulled the slide back to rack a round in the chamber. When the hammer fell, it drove a firing pin forward, which struck the base of the shell, which popped the sping-loaded projectile out of the case and down the barrel. (They didn't go very far though, but had enough oompf for a basement setting.) You had to manually rack the slide for each shot. It was exactly the same size dimensionally of a real 1911.
