Jeez, you sound like my mother! Always the risk of putting out an eye in her assessment. Falling down and breaking your neck was another consequence of risky behavior. The there was the going blind prediction.

I was never in the war thing, altho it was going on but I never was in it as my dad would have shit a brick and I was told to treat it as a real gun and I knew to not do that, but as said it did happen and a bigger kid was in it, named Sammy and he did lose an eye. But he was kind of a retard anyway.

But not from playing with your BB gun, that was playing with your Wee Wee.
My gram used to come up with that shit too, but grandpa said not to pay her no mind as she didn't know cause she didn't have one.
I wonder if thats why I got cataracts now???

yes, but never mind accuracy

we used air rifles and lead pellets. Some of them had waists and a cavity in the back. If you filled that with phosphorous/glue paste from matches, they let off a great crack when they hit anything hard

we scared off the local gang with a handful of those once, they fled like jelly babies

I thought every boy and even some girls had Daisy Red Ryder BB guns. I also had a pair of really nice Stallion cap pistols that were great. Didn't look like cheap shit either. But, when playing either war or cowboys and indians you NEVER shot anyone above the waist..... didn't want to put out an eye! :-)

You can buy production made 'air rifles' in Thailand at any gunshop, but I believe you need a licence. You can also get home made ones out in the rural areas, but obviously these ones are not legal.
