Crossman pellet guns. The runner (victim) stands at the starting line to run down hill. He took off when we said go...you had a choice how many pumps but he gets further away the more you pump.
Rules were you had to aim at the arse or below....i remember many painful bruises. Everybody got their turn! I was a kid growing up in the '70's

Yes, was shot through the pinkie with a pellet gun. The doc pulled it out through the other side and put 1 stitch in it. I cried like a baby when I realized I was shot, it was suppose to be just toothpicks coming out, not pellets.

We used to have 3 pump BB gun wars. Looking back that was extremely stupid but only one kid got hurt.

I remember my friend and I took a couple nuts off these brownies....





...slid them down the barrel, gave it several pumps and then shot his older brother with one of these...





...then we ran away, but he caught up to us and sprayed us with something like this from gadzooks....





...and then he also shot each of us with the gun.


Then later on his mom made us chocolate milkshakes and we watched...

Pump limit was an important rule if you weren't carrying a Daisy red rider. We didn't want to do anything stupid and get someone hurt

BB guns were for figs.
Take a dart in the back of the head and then tell me about it.
Or, hit some poor bastard with one of those hard green pinecones that will rip the flesh off.

We eventually worked in swimming goggles and lifted the no head shot rule.

Oh the epic BB gun wars we fought as kids. The real shite though was our wrist rocket wars. BBs stung. But these frickers....

My brother had some cheap wooden slingshot when we were kids, and he shot a neighbors son with it. So the dad comes outside and takes the sling shite and places it on a tree stump and proceeds to chop it to pieces with an axe while the kids watched.

Yep. You know the ol Christmas Story “you’ll shoot your eye out” cliche? Well, it almost happened to me. Half a centimeter over to the side and it would have been lights out in that eye for me!

Several times, but the worst was a high powered pellet gun at point blank range. My brother still excuses himself because he used a seed instead of a pellet, which actually made it harder to dig out.

I still have the little hole scar in my right thigh.

Grandparents had these huge bushes that flowered and we’d shoot the bumble bees flying around them, that led to way more serious injuries than the wars. Forgot about the pump limits. Those were good times.

My Benjamin 177 caliber pumped ten times would easily go thru a board. Sucker was something. Never pumped it more than 12 times, never. I was told it would ruin it.

Then after 40 years I lent it to a neighbor who wanted to get rid of some ducks. I specifically asked him not to pump it over 10 times. Of course 2 weeks later he came back bragging of killing 2 ducks with one shot cause he pumped it 20 times. Doesn't work that well now.

ANYWAYS, got shot in the chest when I dropped my daisy bb gun butt first on ground climbing over a fence. Hurt.
