My brother (I was too young) had a toy long rifle, just like Davey and Daniel. Same size and heft as the real thing, or at least it seemed to be to my 5 or 6 year old self. It used a powder cap to fire a cork ball. I was too young to aim and shoot it, but not too young to not be targeted by my brother.
I had the Davy Crokett coon skin cap and that rifle too. That cork ball would hurt like a mother ****er. Talk about putting an eye out. Different times.
