Been there, done that, got caught, as youngsters ( 5 and 6 year olds).

We got our bows and arrows taken away. ( cheap wooden "toy" bows with arrows that "had" suction cup tips. We removed the suction cups and used a pencil sharpener to sharpen the blunt end).

And we had our BBgun wars. They stung a bit on a bare belly or back.

And we had our BBgun wars. They stung a bit on a bare belly or back.

We weren't allowed to even point our BB/ pellet guns at any body for any reason.

But we were allowed, and quite often used: hard plastic and cork bullets, hard plastic cannon balls, other hard plastic and hard rubber balls were thrown as grenades, and plastic suction cup dart guns to shoot each other playing cowboys and Indians, cops and robbers, and war. And it wasn't just kids playing, we even had our parents and adult neighbors joining in the fun.

Ah, those almost forgotten memories.
