it's swell - it's Mattel!

As a kid I liked toy guns. I especially liked the toy guns that looked real enough to rob a bank. What's keen about this fanner 45 is that it actually shoots "safe" projectiles. That means you can aim at all your sibling's eyes without worrying about putting an eye out. I wonder why these Shootin' Shell 45s were taken off the market?

You wonder why? Easy..
Pointed-headed, brief case totin' Bureacrats and Communist of every shape form and fashion. They knew that if we played with guns when we were kids we would grow up to join the army and be very proficient at killing. We had no morales as a kid...every nationality was fair game for our "Safe projectiles". Japanese, German, even the Ruskie's. We'd drop them in a New York Minuted.
Give me my gun...
Give me my Greenie Stick 'em caps..
Point...
Aim....
Pull the trigger and
Bob's your uncle...their dead. metaphorically speaking of course.

You know I came into being after the brief case totin' Bureacrats and Communist of every shape and fashion.......I had the video arcade shootem' games. There wasn't a joystick or controller pad. There was a simulated Uzi, shotgun or M-16......to blast away 'enemy combatants' on foreign soil. That was a video game. That was 20 years ago. Funny thing is.....where are they now?
