Brought back memories of my toy tommy gun from the 60’s. I could go through a whole roll of caps in no time and generate a big cloud of smoke.

The Mattel “Fanner 50” is amoung the finest weapons I’ve ever owned. Thanks for posting, those links brought a lot of memories.

Thankfully they made enough 'good noise' without caps, or we'd forever been scavenging pop bottles for caps as kids.

It seemed we were always playing 'Army', (dirt clod grenades (NO ROCKS!), etc.)

We did have a problem with breaking the end of the barrel off for some reason...

Yep. And all the little pieces of red paper stuck to your face and hair.
