I sent a buddy of mine home howling with one of them. His little Red Ryder was no match for it.

I remember that age. The ol man took my bb gun away for shooting the neighbors cats. Then I discovered how much fun a can of wd-40 and a cigarette lighter was. Got my bb gun back

I spent my early years on a farm. Dad supplied the BBs, I took care of the rest. Frogs were my specialty.
