When I was in grade school you used to be able to get cap-guns that looked like real guns. Many a summer day was spent playing "guns" with my friends but those play sessions would generally end in arguments over who actually "got shot." These days, safety codes and federal mandates make is so any toy gun has to look like it's a Rainbow Bright accessory. Well with Nerf N-Strike who shot who is never a question and the guns look pretty cool too. I wish they made this stuff when I was a kid...
