evo1 Posted February 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) Caps for guns It was always cowboys and indians when growing up but as a cowboy you had to have caps in your gun. Also rubbing a stone on them so they would make them go bang. Plus always remember going Rhyl in north wales as this was the place for us stoke lot back in the 70s - early 80's and the seaside shops used to sell keyring cap guns.

I had those guns and that little rocket thingy. Action Man. The first one I ever got was called 'Talking Commander'. Give him a pull, and then he'd talk. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember trying to press the red roof light but that isn't a button if I remember right lol.
