Love cap guns? Of course you do! Here is a guest post from our friends over at CapGuns.org –
The Future Of Cap Guns
Cap Guns Online started two years ago during December when my nephew received two western style cap guns for Christmas. I had always been a big fan of toy guns growing up and these definitely didn’t look like the cap guns I had as a kid.
That’s when it occurred to me. What happened to all the awesome cap guns? And where did the popularity of these toys go? After my encounter I did some research and found out not many places still sell these long lost toys. That’s when the light bulb clicked. I began to create CapGuns.Org, an online retail store, to not only showcase the latest and great cap guns available, but to craft a new name for these toy guns.
The future for cap guns is very important to us, just like the past has been with these toys. Our goal here is to inject new blood into the stream of youth and give our customers the best quality toy guns. We’re constantly updating our arsenal of weapons with hand-guns, rifles, shotguns, and all the must-have accessories and ammo. We’re like Santa’s little cap gun workshop that thrives on providing only the finest products obtainable.
Last but not least, we have a collection of blogs that offers up advice, tips and support with anything and everything to know about cap guns. We even divulge into our “Top 5 movie shoot-outs of all-time” and give away our list of “5 ways to use your cap gun.” You don’t have to be a member of Cap Guns Online to enjoy all the benefits and joys of owning and firing a cap gun.

Why Cap Guns Still Matter
A cap gun is the only replica in the catalog that makes a noise without any powder at all, and that single fact explains why it has survived for a century. The mechanism is a hammer, a cap channel and a ring of paper caps. There is nothing to load, nothing to vent and nothing that can be converted.
That makes it the right choice in three situations: a family event where a blank gun would be inappropriate, a living history display aimed at children, and a venue that bans anything that discharges powder. The trade off is a smaller bang and a mechanism that needs cleaning, because cap residue is corrosive to a die cast finish if it is left in the channel.
Common questions
Is a cap gun legally a toy?
It depends on the country. In many places a realistic cap gun is treated as a replica rather than a toy, so check before taking one through customs.
How loud is it?
Noticeably quieter than a blank gun but still sharp. It is not a silent toy, and it will startle pets and small children.
