Shoot out the Star at Coney Island close to 50 years ago....
They had them at the county fair too.
I would be a very safe full auto owner. I couldn’t afford much spry and pray action.
I’ve done Airsoft for years, got into it primarily for the collector aspect as I would never be able to afford a real M-60 but the Airsoft version I have is quite realistic and a blast to fire full auto.
Check out Amazon. They sell them. Very bad customer reviews on the full auto rifle types.
IBTFYSYEO.
In Before The First You’ll Shoot Your Eye Out.
That’s wild! Looks like a lot of fun and safe/affordable too. Thanks for the link.
When I was a kid in the 50s just about every comic book had ads for full auto BB guns. Also X-ray eye glasses etc.
I always wondered if any of it worked.
Always wondered if those X-ray glasses worked. LOL
Nope, or so I have heard. :)
They are a lot of fun but you have to be careful since they look like a real gun. Neighbors (and cops) might freak out.
Yup the reviews made me stay away from them. Otherwise would have picked one up.

I wasted my allowance on that one, and others
One I didn't fall for was the "Make a ghost" which consisted of a balloon you had to fill with helium and the drape the 6"x6" sheet white of white fabric over it - Voila!"
I remember all of those except the Bear/Bare one.
I actually ordered a telescope from a comic book when I was around 11. I earned the money picking cotton. I sent my $3 (?) off to some company in Miami and maybe a week later actually received a pretty nice little pocket telescope. It also came with a pigskin case lined with velvet.
I found an old pair of glasses back when I was in the seventh grade.
I told everyone they were a pair of those x-ray glasses.
I’d look a girl up and down and go,
“Oh, yeah....nice.”
Had to go see the Principal and apologize to all the girls.
Someone doesn’t know what ‘full auto’ means. That video isn’t ‘full auto’.
