They are NOT kids guns. What a dangerous thing to think!! Kids should not by playing with them. There's been local incidents of serious injury and people being shot at while walking down the street by idiots in cars & needing hospitalisation (someone lost an eye).

Anyway, they play with them because they're legal guns & there's an unfortunate amount of people who think they ARE a toy. They should only be used by people who understand how to use them safely, in a controlled environment.
