I would have given my right arm to have one of those when I was a kid.
[ Many thanks to Dave for emailing me the link. ]
I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

Greetings from Texas,
Another blast from the past. Both my brother and I had the thompsons and the snub nosed revolver. We didn't get them in the set. I don' t recall the holster having a snap.
We also had the M-14 like Big Daddy mentioned. Ours were battery powered.
The only complant I had about any of these weapons of childhood was the plastic construction. We played hard and the guns weren't long term investments. Only the Snub Nosed Revolver survived long enough to be packed away.
Thanks, this was fun to see.
...and another one
