yeah // dave but I don,t thing it was lead /just clipped metal & the guys are right ../ the new ones suck ;;
-------------------------------------------------
No Mike, it was real lead, that's what made them fly so good.
----------------------------------------------------
How about ..sling shots / made with a metal clothes hanger / a elastic / & a band aid >>> shot B/B,s /did serious damages to street lights ;;
-------------------------------------------------
Remember dreaming you could afford the $1.50 sling shot advertised in Field and Stream that could kill a rabbit at 50 yards.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
bean blowers ... but ya had to get that certain kind of bean to be in the running // I remember the local stores /always running out ;;
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who could afford beans,
we waited till the wild cherry pits could be picked.
--------------------------------------------------
or a rubber band // shooting bobby pins :::
---------------------------------------------------
OUCH!!!!!
-----------------------------------------------
this is the best >>> Reverse a bobby pin l thread it tight in reverse ... became a small bow >>> it would shoot the wooded matches / wicked >>>> shoot them thraight up at night & watch them hit the street & explode ;;
or get the same wooded match ... get your mothers sewing needles & rapped it like you would a eye on a fishing rod .. secure it with / a light base of airplane glue >>>>>>> good for shooting at all kinds of things ... ><><><
--------------------------------------------------------
Ya, you needed those wide red rubber bands.
-----------------------------------------------------
hitting a roll of caps with a hammer ;;
-----------------------------------------------------
Ya, but not as dangerous as a Zip gun.
--------------------------------------------------------
ANd those little rockets ya threw in the air that were loaded with one or two caps & they popped when they hit something solid ;;
----------------------------------------------------------
Yup, they called them A bombs.
-----------------------------------------------------------
steel pipe / dropped cherry bombs down the hatch / the wait a few seconds & then a golf ball . F #$%^&*( ball went to saw .. ya couldn,t even see it ;;
---------------------------------------------------------
Or one guy would hold the sling shot, the other would load the cherry bomb, light it and they'd let it fly.
-------------------------------------------------------
Come -on .. ya all got more ;;
