Lots of them. It depends on how old I was..erector set, electric train, walking talky and a 12 Guage shotgun when I was 12 years old.
I did the same things. Were your cowboy guns cap guns? Mine were. Yes, Daisy BB guns were a very popular thing in the 1950s. The city didn't like them because they were CONSTANTLY changing the busted street lights....but it wasn't me! Honest! <GRIP>I had cowboy guns when I was young. We always wanted to play cowboys and Indians, but nobody wanted to be an Indian. Everyone wanted to be Roy Rogers or the Lone Ranger.
That evolved into a Daisy BB gun, but you never went anywhere without riding your bike with your baseball glove on the handle bars. We were always looking for a baseball game.

I played with those too. Did you ever tie some paper or rags to the front of an arrow, lit them on fire and shoot it into a field to lite a fire? That was fun?Bow and Arrow.
Me and a buddy would play chicken with our bows. We'd stand about 100 feet apart and shoot the arrow straight up in the air and see how close we could get the other one. We'd flip a coin to see who would stand with the sun in our eyes, making it hard to see the arrow. I guess it was our version of lawn darts.I played with those too.
