Question of the Day: What Toy Guns Did You Play With As a Kid?

Back in the day, LEGO blocks were blocks. In fact, they were called LEGO blocks. Anything you built with them was . . . blocky. These days, LEGO has more types of plastic pieces than Denmark has attractive women. And yet the Danes have to work hard to get kids to think outside the blocks. I mean box. To build things that aren’t described in the directions. Wasn’t that the point of the LEGO movie? Anyway, LEGO guns looked stupid. Now, they don’t. Well, not to a kid. Then again, this ex-kid grew up shooting plastic and die-cast guns that looked and sounded like real guns. OK, not Airsoft quality, but way more realistic than NERF guns. Lever guns! Cap guns! Six-shooters! Machine guns! Rifles! (Shotguns? Not so much.) I haven’t seen that kind of toy in decades. What toy guns did you play with as a kid? What toy guns do your kids play with?
