Toy Caps

Series: Remember When | Story 7

I saw in item on Facebook the other day that featured a roll of “caps,” wondering if anyone remembered what they were. Of course, most of us would remember, as most of my generation had a cap gun at one time or another.

Now to get a little personal, we have one today. It is a small little pistol looking gun. Of course, I had to order ammo for it. The rolls of caps are not what they use to be! The roll is a little narrower, and the percussion dots much closer together. This tells me that I may still be able to purchase these fun toys if I were to look, but like most everything else, changes have been made.

Other fun things, like Kick the Can, Anti I Over, and just plain Tag, being played by the young, no doubt in the street close to home, are a thing of the past also.
