Flashlight Guns
Share:
always carried around trusty flashlight guns. And did you know that in the early
’60s, these guns became incredibly popular with kids, too? Much like the squirt
guns (see Scoop 9-13-02 for more) of the ’40s and ’50s, flashlight
guns were, well, a surefire way to make you a hit with all the other kids. Of
course, with flashlight guns, you didn’t have to worry about being suspended
from school for soaking teachers like you did with the squirt guns. Not that
they looked too terribly different, though. This flashlight gun (above right),
for example, is of bright red plastic – but instead of filling it with water,
you’d fill it with batteries. And the light (which was activated by pulling the
trigger) guaranteed hours of fun, day or night.
