So, will I need to turn in my fully automatic J7-OMA once the liberals come for our guns?

You'll put your eye out! On my 7th birthday, I got one of these...I was the happiest kid on the planet! Course, nowadays they would be banned.

I did indeed have one. Even my dad got a kick out of it, the way the sun would glint off of the rope of BBs the thing would spit out. He said it reminded him of those amusement park shooting gallery guns, where you had to shoot the star-shaped center out of the paper target to win a prize.

I think my M-19A still exists, sitting in a friend's storage unit.

Back then we just cut grass, raked leaves, caddied, to get money for something that cool but we all bought 10 speeds and a Crosman 10-pump instead.
The fun you guys must have had with that thing, hope you still have it.

Ah, the heady days of mail order and the classified ads in the back of Boy's Life Magazine. :-)

This one pictured sold on Gunauction.com for over $200.00. I don't think it cost much more than $20.00 new. It was really a toy compared to the "real" airguns of the day.

One of the gun magazines actually ran an article on the freon-powered BB machine gun back in the day. Freon cost about $1/can back then. Now you have to be a mechanic to buy real freon, and it costs a bunch.

If that was an AR-47 he could shoot out every eye in town.

And if your town had 350 people, you could do it in one minute! (Democrat office-holder said that "assault" rifle could fire 700 rounds a minute; I'm assuming each person has two eyes. We know it takes much more time than a minute.)

That's it!
Those things were so fun, every kid 9 thru 13 wants one.
Not enough range though, so make sure to have a pellet gun
Thanks for the pic, sure brings back memories.

Gees. I had one.
Was really rough on the Christmas ornaments.
I blamed the cat till my mom found a busted ornament with a bullet in it...

Does anyone remember those fully automatic BB guns they used to advertise in the back of comic books back in the 50s?
A friend had one back in college. Powered by a can of freon!!!

You can turn in your ammunition one round at a time.
