I seen this on the Internet and it brought back memories.I had a pair of these when I was a kid.They are Fanner 44's with holsters.The unique thing about these cap pistols where they had plastic bullets that looked like the real thing and they would shoot just like real shells.They were heavy just like a real pistol and extra good quality of workmanship for a toy.Stupid me I traded them for a Monopoly game after years of having them.The point of this story is how things have changed from the 50's till now.Back then little boys had play guns and army and cowboys was a a way to have fun.There was always a good guy and a bad guy in our games.Now in this age parents shy away from letting their kids be kids and use their imagination.
