There were no guns (apart from the water ones) in the toy stores/department stores at the mall today (incl Target and Kmart  and others)

 

Obviously I wouldn't think they are in the lolly aisle, I don't know why you had to add that apart from trying to be snarky.

Something no-one else has resorted to in this thread so far.

 

I didn't go to the discount/variety stores.

Target and Kmart are variety stores.

Choose to ignore the rest.

yes, I have to admit we've had some pretty cool nerf gun wars here, I think that the OH and I have more fun with it than the kids!

 

and water fights (best not tell the kids I actually approve of those though LOL) - we have a fair few 3/4 walls here and a loft - the fun you can have sneaking up on the kids with water bombs! LOLOL

These cheaper ones, I guess from a distance could?
Up close no way, very plastic/fake.

Next time I'm shopping, I'll buy one and post the pic.

It will be interesting to see.  I knew that less and less retailers were selling realistic looking guns but until today, I was not aware of the new restrictions.

i dont really like those foam dart gun things......they're a PITA lol

You mean ..... toy (Nerf)  gun.......

Once loaded....heaps of fun.

Yes, that was the one I meant.  PITA

seriously....some here are sharp as a bowling ball. Yes you can buy very unrealistic looking toy guns sheesh but as for guns that look to be the real deal. Not for ages in SA

Im sure the situation would have been different if the kid was waving a nerf gun.. **bleep**
