I’ve collected/dealt in vintage cap guns for 20 years.There were westerns on TV almost every night of the week and each program seemed to have a toy gun named after it.Every kid had these toys,but our role models were all good guys who always won.Sadly the tables seemed to have turned and the bad guys usually come out ahead.It is the fond memories of an innocent youth that connects us to our toys and why baby boomers still look for these old treasures to connect to their past.
For a realistic-looking toy,google Mattel Dick Tracy snub nose .38.They stopped making these because people would use them to rob stores when you were not charged with armed robbery if the gun was a toy.Thats all changed.
