Re: A different age
I suspect it was a cap gun, although I don't recall any of those being blued. All I ever saw were plated.
And this kid looks a little old for a cap gun. Maybe a CO2?

Re: A different age
I stand corrected. Please accept my apologies. I am used to checking things because my mom sends me SO much that it's habit and I failed to read and "Assumed" it was about the same picture.

Re: A different age
I know how the kid feels.
I feel the same way listening to politicians speak.
