This would surely freak out the lefties today.

My family was poor when I was a kid. I could only afford one of these.
I only used it for target practice, of course, and nobody got excited over it.

I grew up in the seventies and I had no idea that these had been made until a few years ago. It's odd that other versions of it didn't continue to be sold through the years, it was ahead of its time and way too awesome to have only been made for such a short time.

Why yes I did. Had so much fun I lost most of what shoots, and eventually most of it was broken.

No but was into "Army" as a kid. Smile

Did get a Mattel Shootin' Shell Pistol that was fantastic but more Cowboy than Army.

I preferred the Sgt. Saunders Tommy Gun. Burned through a roll of caps pretty quick though.

No, but I had a similar gun to the one Feersum Dreadnaught had. I thought mine was James Bond, but maybe it was The Man from UNCLE.

I know, right? I was six years old in 1964. Granted, I don't remember a lot from that time period, but I would surely remember something like that.

I think I had them all! The Johnny Eagle 1911 Colt (still have it) and M1, Mattel Shoot'n Shell Single action Colt and lever action rifle. The Man from Uncle pistol with carbine stock, barrel extension and "infrared" scope. I had multiple cap firing Thompson machine guns. I had a Civil War cannon that shot black plastic cannon balls that you DID NOT want to get hit with at close range. I still have all my eyes, fingers and brothers!

I had that or something very much like it. As I recall, it broke pretty easily, but then I found out later that my older brother would break my toys because of jealousy.

I did have a Six Finger when I was older.
