saw this come across my FB feed this weekend. and people wonder why kids carrying "fake guns" get shot up. could it be because there is no way these days to tell the real ones from the fake ones? Facepalm

How many kids have ever even played with a zapper?

Also they are custom painted. You could get them to paint a gun to look like a banana if you want.

Right? Cops under 25 aren't even phased. "What, it was a gray gun. I don't get the hype?"

i just picked up my last "utility" pistol, so i'm not quite to the point where i'm just getting stuff that's cool. that would be a fun one to have around and show off, but i'd imagine it costs a pretty penny.

i'd have a problem with it if it was a mass-produced line, but considering they're custom jobs, i don't see an issue. and, as others have said, it's not like kids today have any idea what a Zapper is anyway.

Most likely true PSX was release in 1994 so even if they were raised on second hand systems they had either N64 or SNES (which had a somewhat rare gray gun)

Showed my 16 year a picture of a NES Zapper. He told me it was a Gamecube gun. This from a video game fanboy who breaks out an old gameboy to play Pokemon once in a while.

Call me when they make a gun look like Castlevania's Vampire Killer whip.
