I'm having internet connection issue at work so pages don't load well so I get some text but no images. What the heck??

"Minstrel Make-Up"

I misread it as Menstral make up and about had a cow.



I did have the M-16 machine gun though.

Is there some issue with the M-16 toy gun? I had one, had a trunk full of toy guns, everyone did. Mine were stolen by construction workers many years ago but I had one. Guess they'd be really freaked to know I had real ones at the same time I had that one. lol.

Can you really not buy a toy M-16 these days? Have they seen Call of Duty and Doom and Halo? I'm sure you can, I know they sell lots of airsoft ones. So it is in fact "still marketed today" isn't it?

I didn't have the PEZ gun but wish I had. They're right about that monkey though, that thing is just too creepy to be legal.

Gosh. I had the smoking characters, the M16, the Pez shooter, and even the musical chimp. We were kings of the crap toys.

Loved the M16. That was the best toy gun ever.

Oh, you mean the TOY gun? No, but a friend had one. It was cool.

They still sell guns but most are colored in such a way as to not look like a real firearm.
