[timpriddy73]

TAKE IT TO SCHOOL FOR "SHOW AND TELL"

[nextraincloud1989]

I wish I had one

[Equinox226]

man i love these old toy guns they're better then the new ones

[lancelot1953]

Hi Retrogoop,

Thanks for sharing that vintage commercial about this Mattel gun - it brings back a lot of memory. I remember mine, I also had a matching six-shooter. The bullets had a metal casing with a small spring that would should the plastic bullet about 10~15 ft if I remember well. It was very realistic, for a kid that is, and was my treasure toy.

thank you & happy holidays,

L

[RetroGoop]

@lancelot1953 Glad you liked the clip, I had a lot of these toys too but they were sort of hand me downs, I caught the tail end of it all being born in '61

[peterbilt2004]

Try running outside around the house playing cops and robbers with these guns and watch the neighborhood go into lockdown.

[marshalt]

I need to hear from someone who actually had one of these, how long was it before you lost the bullets?

[zorozornes]

@marshalt Wow this post brings back a ton of memories. I'm 56 yrs. old . and I owned the SHOOTIN SHELL WINCHESTER, They also made my favorite , a clip fed German Luger it held 8 shots These were excelant plastic repro . It was amazing to me that they could get the knee action of the toggle on the Luger to work . The shells wre made of plastic and they worked by pushing the bullet into the case witch compressed a spring and held inplace with 2 hooksThe hammer hit the case=POW!

[macroevolve]

At least we can still by a real Winchester 1894

[Brady736]

Back then stuff was cheap and quaility. Today things are cheap and a piece of shit on a sandwich.

[rodenderon1]

@ mitternact1. In case you were born after 1963 , John F. Kennedy was shot in the head. Do I need to spell it out?

[tev866]

Man, I wish I was born during the 50s. You would have realistic, cheap, AWESOME cap guns. Now, you would be arrested for taking one of those out in public.

[user900ish]

imagain posting this video on youtube and 2 weeks latar the F.B.I comes knocking on your door and sends you to guantanimo bay!

[BankaiIchigo12345]

What's it mean safe shooting? It shoots bullets with gunpowder (albeit small ammounts of gunpowder so it doesn't go very fast) but you see it is enough force to both launch the bullet and eject the cartridge! This could seriously injur someone like a bb gun!

[inkey2]

@BankaiIchigo12345 no it couldn't injure you like a B B gun......they were usually plastic bullet heads that you snapped on to a spring loaded shell, the force of the guns hammer jarring the shell caused the plastic bullett to dislodge..... he caps (gun powder) was used just for the sound.... they had nothing too do with propelling the bullet.......you could shoot someone in the head with these all day and the only thing they'd die from is bordom

[anastaisa100]

That horse looked pretty upset. I'm just saying...

[DannyandBrandonTV]

The cap guns back in the day are so awesome, but now they're made out of cheap plastic and a blazing orange tip.

[declanm1992]

Anyone else notice Sexy Rexy on that picnic basket 0:15

[thespaceboon101]

i find it funny how these days parents and government dont like this stuff even though the let kids buy video games where you use guns and shoot at people and have thier head blow up into 68 shades of red

[2tur]

If you walked outside with one of these in todays age, a Police Officer would shoot you without hesitation. These are banned in this age.

[spenspen99]

why dont they make toys like these?

[LooksLegitBro]

@spenspen99 this was back when America wasn't full of hippies/ girly men. now our country is so up-the-wazoo with laws and regulations regarding "glorification of guns" that they barley sell anything this awesome anymore. the closest thing you can get to it is a red rider bb gun.

[younghoss]

Looks like the lake in Andy Griffith Show

[ginjaninja1988]

The fact that toy guns have to have orange tips and be all sort of funny colours, that in my nation full auto BB guns are restricted weapons that rquire special licensing and security says something about our society. That our police are so aggressive, out of control and confrontational to the point where they look for any opportunity to whip their (real guns) out and shoot someone 60 times. Yet no one ever questions police culture; they just propose banning toys.

[bluefire179]

Back then...

[BaldrOdinson]

More glorification of gun violence.

[UggmunsStudios]

@BaldrOdinson I saw nothing violent in this video. Just kids enjoying toys.

[Horrorlord1]

0:15 Sexy.rexy. Get-up

WTF!?

[RetroGoop]

because if a cop saw you running around with one, he would think it's real and shoot you

[atfatw]

@RetroGoop many many times

[sirtom68]

@RetroGoop Cop will shoot ya if he sees ya running around with a hair dryer

[Lumotaku]

@RetroGoop Yeah right cause a 5 year old is going to run around with a real winchester geesh have to be a retarded cop.

[cowboydude127]

why dont they make toy guns like that these days.

[newjerseybt]

@cowboydude127 and others. Someone on  American Thinker has written a great article regarding your question.

[jazzynet1]

Man we had bb guns and pellet guns :D. we were some dangerous kids :D

[ACEODST343]

i thought color video was around the early 60's :L

[sdafdsffdsjkfdfhdjk]

@ACEODST343 yes but do they ere expansive

[BomxStudios]

They sure did sacrifice realism for convinece on this one. Imagine tryint to find those shells

[RetroGoop]

@BomxStudios I'm sure they knew you would always be losing them and would just have to buy more

[imperialcrypt]

@RetroGoop

Also polluting the environment with them. like that forest in the vid.

[gostblaster]

More like "you can tell its mattel, when it shoots like hell!!"

[PAULLONDEN]

And...what are we actualy shootin'?..These bloody injuns ofcourse.- •

[JPQC99]

Back in the day when toys were cheap and AMAZINGLY high quality, not like today when everything is made in china, not that I have anything against them or anything, but I am tired of cheap plastic toys.

[RetroGoop]

@JPQC99 True True but trust me, we had a lot of cheap plastic toys back then too.

[KaiserWilhelmIV]

Filmed in the same location as Combat! ( Franklin canyon park)

[Codguy77]

I want it!

[cleib87]

THe answer is they lost all of the bulletts and shells.  I had them and they were almost impossible to keep track of.

[Marcohazard]

*Filp Cocking*

[TheTyler0953]

wow i wonder how many bullet tips and bullet cases kids lost lol

[BombBakers]

wow thats awesome toys and nowadays people think cod is fun what jerks!

[dinosaurus1337]

if they released one of these today the company would be ued for all they got and moms would start complaining that it's "to violent and kids will start thinking it's ok to kill" when honestly kids arn't that stupid and hell they can rip people apart limb by limb in video games.

[TheGreta958]

Stuff Waz More Realistic Backthen

[sammyb1998]

why was ever thing better back then

[andyalpha68]

To every one who remembers back in the day. It was not that long ago (in the 80's) when toy gun STILL looked like guns, all black and not orange tip at the barrel. I remember playing with cap guns in my youth in the 70's playing war or cowboys & indians those were good times. Today all the toy guns are bright colors, orange caped end, no ads and all the lawmakers want to do is ban all toy guns including water guns (which don't look like anything a real gun). sad sad.

[JohnEnglehorn]

@andyalpha68 dude those were the good ol days to play, now kids these days and us have similar things and thats airsoft, but those as i call them were the very early first airsoft guns i still miss those old guns they should bring them back

[DubeTubeStuff]

better than nerf

[busyhands94]

back when children's toys taught them to be real men, not like today's toys that teach them to be a bunch of sissy girly males.

[waffle1997]

@busyhands94 yep you're right

[busyhands94]

i know that when i am of the age to have children i am not going to give them the modern crap. i will be giving them some real toys. politically incorrect ones like cap guns, toy knives, stuff to play "cowboys and Indians" with. not this safety foam coated crap they sell these days.

[waffle1997]

@busyhands94 yep i want one of these this is better than airsoft

[waffle1997]

@busyhands94 oh go to Denis Leary - Let Nature take its course it shows what ur talkin about or something but its pretty funny

[albertw38]

Damn it the toy companies and parents were alot more careless back then if they did that today parents would go ape shit

[mythic456]

What I'd do for a time machine.

[LaserGuy0]

This is from the days when EVERY kid grew up with guns, and gun crime was almost unheard of. Only after Libs demonized them, did the problems start..

[LoveAddictREmix]

WTF?!

"Sexy-Rexy Suit"? Really?

[NuTsY051]

anyone else thinking... give the kid an air rifle? >= ]

[Myrmidon26]

The sound of cap guns makes liberals cry, that's why you don't see kids playing with toys like this anymore.

[MrZimmer96]

@Myrmidon26 wat do you man we have airsoft paintball and nerf........... they are the same concept

[FLASHM97]

Wish I grew up then. Almost better than airsoft

[atmtrooper]

why dont they make good toys like this any more

[Zaxerman]

They look totaly real! your friends, family, or jumpy policemen cant tell the difference!

[Paganwarrior2000]

@Zaxerman That was before police had to worry about everyone shooting them.

[taliban939]

you tell its mattel,it well

[ninjaonpot1]

@taliban939 its swell not well

[carlnardo]

@taliban939 swell

[TwiliteNites]

I'm still diggin' those things outa my arse from my baby brother takin' deadly aim at it.

('course I'd give him a John kennedy every once in a while to egg him on)

[marinegunner56]

@TwiliteNites whats a john kennedy

[mitternact1]

@TwiliteNites I have no idea what you just said but it scares me.
