    Remains to be seen I bought the tires and wheels the rest came along
    I had several .

    On some if you rewound the roll you could double them up.

    My rolls never fed correctly out of the gun. You'd have to pull them through and line them up with the firing pin.

    Successful feeding on those guns was largely a factor of the quality of the caps.

    I had one too. Found out if you took the little screen out of the end you could get a little flash at night. My friends and I would play with them endlessly on Summer nights after dinner. Good times.

    At least in my area the ring style were a pain to find. This was late 1970s.
