I'm old enough to remember cap guns. The ones with the rolls of caps that made a pretty impressive "bang". And some of the guns themselves looked like the real deal. Made out of metal and some even had wood-plated grips. I remember having one that came with a leather holster so that I could strap it to my waist and practice my draw.

Nobody batted an eye in those days if a kid was walking around with one.

I did learn some bad habits at that early age. Such as pointing that gun directly at another person. I think kids should be taught at an early age never to point a real looking gun at another person. Water guns are a different story however as they are obviously just toys and pointing at people is the whole point.

When I got to Marine boot camp, they straightened me out real quick about how to properly handle guns.

Yeah, I grew up in the 50's-60's, had cap guns, BB guns, .22 rifles.

Great memories and I still have that cap smell in my head.
