What a horrible toy! And I can't even count the number of people who have responded to me (or my friends) being upset about the unfortunate need to do 'active shooter drills' in school now by saying, "Well in my day we had to do bombing drills". I roll my eyes so hard, the damn things are going to roll right out of my head and then I'll be extra pissed because I won't be able to read with my eyes gone and all.
@ Sarah: At first I thought it was a joke advert making fun of the ever growing American war machine. But nope! It's a REAL toy sold in the late 1940's complete with enemy (presumably Soviet) target board. It was not a unique toy by any means......
@ Mudpuddle: I believe you can get drones with guns these days - in the States anyway! - which might be able to help with your mole issue.
@ Stephen: Apparently such things (as this toy) are super-collectible!
