Give a Toy Gun & Ignite the Spark of a Future Gun Owner

Dec. 6, 2012

What a great way to teach responsible gun ownership, while blowing the liberal brainwashing agenda of America's youth straight out of the water!


Give a Toy Gun & Ignite the Spark of a Future Gun Owner

Manasquan, NJ --(Ammoland.com)- I must have been 9 or 10 when an uncle gave me a G14 1970s Combat Machine Cap Firing Gun for Christmas.

At the time it was not a toy I would have asked for, I think that my uncle gave it to me more to annoy my mother as I ran around shooting off the caps in the house, at the dog and my little brothers.

But that plastic M16 lookalike “Evil Black Rifle” was the spark that burned itself into my subconsciousness and from that Christmas forward I, at least in my young mind as I wasn’t old enough for the real thing, I was a gun owner.

Needless to say between my brothers and I we burned through our supply of snap caps in a day and never saw another “Ammunition Resupply” again, thanks Mom..? But that plastic rifle was the star of many backyard battles fought from holes and forts all across my neighborhood.

Now today most modern retailers have bought into the anti-gun hate speech that kids should never touch or for that matter see a gun, plastic or otherwise. So it can be a challenge finding a quality toy gun, that is not made from clear plastic or in wacky pinks and blues.

We need a gun that looks like the real thing to make it worthy of a child’s birthday or Christmas!

So in researching this article I found there are still some great choices and a great many thanks needs to be heaped on the Airsoft Movement as they embody the idea above that through toy guns children can learn not only the thrill of pulling the trigger but the responsibility care and caution that comes with owning something that “can put your eye out kid”.

Where to Find Quality Toy Guns?

My first thought was to look were I already spend most of my time looking for real guns and that is on GunBroker.com . Try this link to get right to their search for toy guns: http://tiny.cc/j2kuow . My only hesitation here is a lot of the real toy stuff, not counting Airsoft, is collectible and not quite what I had in mind when looking for a toy that can take some real play time punishment.

Surprisingly one of the best places I found on the web for true toy guns was Amazon. Here is just a few that I found that I would love to play with.

32″ AK47 SWAT Team Assault Rifle

Blue Grenade represent American MK 2 “practice grenade” during WW2. Yellow Grenade represent MK2 “high explosive ordinance” during WW2. 9 Inch Blade with Sheath.

As you can see they have a great variety of real toy guns and I did not even get into the vast selection of Airsoft Guns that Amazon has to offer.

So give a boy or girl a Toy Gun and plant the seed of gun ownership. Then watch that young person grow into a freedom loving, self dependent, responsible adult. God knows we could use more of those folks these days.
