So that,'s a bummer.
Fidget spinners I knew about. Fidget guns I did not.
hashtag babies need guns too.
The only thing that can stop a bad toddler with a gun is a good toddler with a gun!
Thanks doc
You got it, Ben Franklin’s dick.
They had them in the 50s too with real shut-up-your-annoying-sibling action
That’s what the .22 short was invented for.
Coming soon: fidget matches for children
Perfect for autism
This gave me the autism
Put some stab in your stimm
Better this than TikTok or Disney. BTW put the link I want one
Read the reviews! Apparently they break quickly. Also, none of the controls do anything. The slide just goes back and forth.
That’s already better than most toys. I know little me would have loved one that could be field stripped.
It’s ok, they fire under charged .22 bullets that aren’t too dangerous and that build character.
Oh thank goodness.
As long as the children learn that bullets aren’t dangerous, things should be fine.
Cap guns, potato guns, water guns, just plain clicky/sparky/light up guns and so on, guns for kids are nothing new. Fidget in the name is a gimmick to use bright colours and sell plastic guns to more kids.
Not the same product or intent.
Cap guns or laser guns light up or make noise and are meant to be “toys”, a fidget gun is simply correlating pulling the trigger of a gun with relieving anxiety or stress.
I’ve never felt more stress after pulling a trigger. Stress relief seems tied directly to ammo fired (so long as I’m not paying for the ammo, anyway.)
Are you normally pent up or generally nervous?
Sometimes. It’s location dependent. Firearms are mostly just a lot of fun tho.
I definitely feel that location dependent thing.
Glad you have fun
Shooting is a wonderful way to disconnect and concentrate on something other than your problems. Gardening works for me as well.
I doubt going children even care that it’s a fidget toy, they’ll still be mindlessly clicking the clicky bits on it or waddling around shouting pew pew pew
Kids recognize objects and intent pretty well.
But here’s to optimism.
Had these as a kid. Wasn’t in a family who owned guns.
Bb gun and airsoft too. Never considered it odd but guess from outside perspective is an American thing.
We had cap guns, BB guns and spud guns in the UK too so not just an American thing.
Water pistols as well.
Big in India as well.
Kids love guns. If you don’t want kids to love guns, then stop putting guns in every movie.
Sure wouldn’t hurt.
John Wick 4: pool noodles
With a noodle.
With a fucking noodle!
is this an american thing?
I doubt exclusively, but yes.
They’re sold in the US.
I know other countries have regulations against toy guns, especially marketed towards children, but I don’t have any specific sales numbers for the US.
