I liked ripping a push pin through the paper ones!
PorkinsLove503
And gun powder
whitebbwolf
70s nostalgia too

Oh these are a wee bit older than the 90s. Don’t you have a neon Nerf soccer gun thing to remember?
darkestkale
Worst cockring ever
CyanideBreathMint
I prefer the paper caps.
KarlderMarder
more like 80s
KujiiiraArt
Born in 90, these were still a huge part of my childhood
Bashihart12
I had one cap gun that caught on fire after I used it so much, I guess excess powder built up inside

90's? Those were around in the 70s and probably before that.
WatcherNotCreeper
pew pew pew
jfitz
70’s too.
GizmosBabySitter
I can smell this photo. Good times...
Krustation137
Weirdly this smell always made me feel sick as a kid.
GizmosBabySitter
Sure it wasn't just the anxiety from your older siblings tormenting you, coz I got those feels too.
bigleciezki
Try 70´s. : )
givemeyourwalletbagpursemanbag
Did anyone use the darts?
psychorico
Yes
IlioHae
90’s? More like 60’s/70’s
Jisp
So much fun! /a/I8Fw7xb
trumpypumpyinyourrumpy
Fuck man. I have hundreds of these. I gave them to my son
TCGView
Oh, these are FAR older than the 90s.
scrapz
Anyone remember those rolled up long paper strips of caps?
dumbarkus
Yeah! Could load them into rocketsthat banged on impact with the ground :)
Drakhma
no cap gun? get a hammer
jobbybob
/a/IIHSQba got these bad boys for ya.
TellusEidolon
I think I had one of those too.
SlappySamsonite
OMG! I had that exact one!!! Thanks, you made my week!
CJK56
I’ll take things that will get you shot or arrested for 200 Alex.
Yellowboy66
Can't even buy these in the UK anymore.
TheRealEh
Stack ‘em up and smash ‘em with a hammer.
Toofwess
As somebody that used to do this a lot... WHAT? SPEAK UP
Ryang256
Just make sure you don't do it somewhere that echoes, like a nearly empty garage, or be prepared for hearing loss.
Baskaa
That’s how I lost part of my hearing.
Superchief86
My cousin did that once when I was about 8. I was very impressed.
Tsamane
katakura
or with just a stone
Cuckoldcameraman
Yeah I used a rock!
HarleyUltraRider70
These things were around in the 70's.
guesswhatchickenbutt26
They may not have been invented in the 90’s but that doesn’t mean people didn’t still play with them.
HarleyUltraRider70
I've seen something similar in the 90's. They were flat discs, blue and white and they were 2 sided.
SanMan531
Yeah I was going to say, I have fond memories of those when I was a child in the early 80's.
chapitaine
And the 90s
ThisOldCPU
Pop rings and snaps kept us entertained for entire summers.
HeNeverSawMollyAgain
“90’s kids” seem to believe all of history began during their childhood
veryfakemod
Yes. No computers = no history.

LazerHawkAttack
Do they still sell this and toy revolvers?
Odmanra
Almost all stores in Texas
DrMephistopheles
Only with mandatory helmet
canisfenri
Yup
LazerHawkAttack
Haven't seen anyone in Norway, I was buying some toys to my kid, but as we say in Norwegian: Kruttlapp-pistol/revolver, but alas, no guns...
SomeoneTookMyUsernameToo
Yes, but the amount of boom-stuff in those is far less than it used to be in the 90's.
Asadsadsadclown
The chances of getting shot while holding it are much higher too.
SomeoneTookMyUsernameToo
Luckily I'm not in a 3rd world country with a gucci belt, gun violence is practically nonexistent here.
grimnorseman
...in the united states of nra ? Yes. The rest of the world is somewhat sane by comparison.
Clockworkdancerobot
Or the ones with the long strip of them.
Dxb105
I smashed 3 rolls at once with a big rock. That was very loud. In the city surprised nobody called the cops.
Grateful42
I have a few rolls left from my cap gun, every time i find them while cleaning i pop a few with my thumb.
myrdrah
We used to fold it lengthwise, fold it around a rock, then tape it. A improvised hand grande! ?
crumpuppet
hand pregante!
Floridaguysmyfirstcousin
I think you're taking about these. https://www.tintoyarcade.com/cowboy-strip-caps-208-shots
BigMoFace
I used to fold the strip lengthways and wrap it around a penny, tape it up and then throw at a wall. Huge bang ensued. Fun times.
LaBix
I had an awesome rifle that took roll caps. But due to the weird way it was manufactured, you was guaranteed to pop some off on reload.
destinoz
The ones that would catch on fire sometimes? Good times!
SupermassiveZebra
That was the best part
SlappySamsonite
Ah yes… the hammer on a whole role was fun but expensive. The thumbnail technique as well… Black, yellow and smelled like sulphur for days!
bound4doom
LOL I seen the long strip comment and my first thought was Hammer. Glad I am not the only one
Metazolid
Also sometimes hurt like a mf
BanGurHeaD
Tassyr
God, roll caps. I miss roll caps.
hootimcowlface
So good
BklynPunisher
You can get them on Amazon. I bought some recently.
poobly
Am I imagining it, or did I have one which had a blue/purple ring which had 12 shots?
swisstraeng
oh THAT one
Nippledeepinahorse
Found the rich kid. I hated your kind.
poobly
The fact we both liked cap guns would have probably meant we’d have been friends at school.
ProbablyPoe
? Smells like 40's-60's nostalgia you mean? I grew up with these too but their heyday was post-ww2
Quessan
seeing as they slowly used less and less... I imagine post-ww2 ones being primer caps left over from 30-06 manufacture
kingrd
Literally still available at any dollar store, but okay grandpa
Quessan
really? the ones they made right after ww2 are still in the dollar store? Keep acting like we haven't sheltered each generation 1/2
Quessan
more and more, you smug little shit
kingrd
Woa time to take your medicine and chill out, old timer
Quessan
JUST BECAUSE I JUST TURNED 37 DOESN'T MEAN I'M OLD! ...I'm really not... I'm hip... I'm down...*sobs uncontrollably*
