BARBARIC? ACTUALLY IT WAS A MORE CIVILIZED AGE: Unbelievable boy’s toy gun ad from 1964: “Johnny Seven OMA (One Man Army).” “TV ads for kids’ toy weapons like this 1964 spot for ‘Johnny Seven OMA (One Man Army)’ were so much more barbaric in the 1960s–but gun violence numbers in America were lower back then. Go figure that one out.” Yes, why don’t you do that? I’ll wait. . . .

It was a few years later, but I had one of these. It was awesome. How realistic? This realistic.
