Did you ever have one of those airguns that you could pump up and they made a "bang!" noise? If you jammed the barrel in the dirt you could really sting your little brother in the backside.

And heaven forbid any child today got a cap gun.

The horror of it. All that dangerous gunpowder in the hands of innocent children.

We used to buy the stuff in huge boxes and probably had enough powder to load shotgun shells

I remember something from the early 80s called an "air blaster"

big goofy pistol that had a red tip and black body. mostly just made a pop noise, but blew a pretty good amount of air...
