to produce a, sharp resonant sound when said member is cockedand then quickly released by the user of said toy.
A further object of my invention is the production of a toy that will withstand rough handling and without recourse to the production of metals and with a, minimum usage of other critical materials necessary for the war eifort.
A further object of the invention is to enable the manfacture of a toy in quantity production whereby said toy may be sold at a low cost, thereby providing a. harmless form of amusement well within the reach of all children who desire such a toy.
Other specific objects of my invention will appear asthe description thereof proceeds.
In further description of my invention, reference may be had to the accompanying drawings in which:

Fig. 19 is a view on the line I 9-{9 of Fig. 15 showing the opening that provides the entrance of the hammer member to pass through the assembled moulding or casting and into operable position.
Referring to Figs. land 2, the toy pistol proper is designated by the numerallfl. The pistol consists of two mouldings or castings 10a and I012 two molded or cast sections which are joined together when assembled by means of the screw II that is screwed into the threaded groove Ila. The jointure of the two companion moulded parts is further made secure and immovable after assembly thereof by means of the slotted groove Hid. I00 designates the handle of the pistol.
Referring to Figs. 13 and 14, said figures show the movable hammer member piece M which has a hammer head la, a thumb retriever portion Nb and a dowel pin M0, the latter slidably fitting into the slot cavity 14d (Fig. 12) when the member piece is fitted into the toy through the medium of the groove 20. A dowel 12 which is integral to the moulding or casting lilo. fits into the cavity l3 when the castings Illa and 101) are joined together. The dowel l2 seated in the manner hown in Fig. 7 serves to hold both castings in rigid position after they have been secured together in the assembly thereof.
The member piece I4 furthermore has a hook portion Me, said hook portion intended to hold a rubber band or like resilient loop i5, said rub ber band being held in positionby means of the hook portion 18.
Another loop portion I4 is provided on the hammer piece I 4 for holding the rubber band 15a, and which is applied and extended into the handle portion We, and is held in position by means of the hook l6. Said rubber band 15 in addition to providing a resilient tension for the hammer piece 14 serves also to hold said hammer piece in position in the slot cavity Md.
The rubber bands l5 or 15a may be used optionally, but not simultaneously. It will be seen head portion I4a thereof when the piece I4 is'being pulled away or backed up by the 'user of the toy pistol aforesaid.
When the band I5 is extended into the barrel II, it is secured to the hook I8, or if the band and is also provided with dowels I40 which rest in a circular cavity on each side of the pistol casting or moulding when the hammer member piece is inserted into the pistol through the passage 20, as shown in Figs. and 19 after the assembly of the two parts I1 and I8 of the pistol toy proper.
When using the modified toy pistol as de-' scribed, the pulling of the trigger 22a causes the head piece I4a to strike the pan I9 causing thereby 'a-clicking noise, and upon the quick release of the trigger portion 22a, a further clicking noise is produced by the hammer piece I4b striking the back handle I0 due to the retraction of I 5a is used, it is extended to the hook I6. In
either case the effect will be the same, viz., holdretraction of the hammer I4a by the user of said toy. v
A means for mounting the rubber band I5 inside the pistol through the band portion thereof is as follows: The band is first mounted on the hook Me of the member piece I4 while said member is disengaged from the pistol proper.
The member piece I4 which as stated is detached from the pistol portion of thetoy and with the rubber band attached thereto and being held in the hook Me is slipped into the pistol through the slot 20. The band is then picked up through the barrel opening by means of a hooked crochet needle or like tool or facility, and brought therewith over the hook I8 and secured thereon. The pistol is then ready' to operate.
When it is desired to operate the pistol with the shorter rubber band operating in the handle Illc, the rubber band is secured on the hook M) of the member piece I4, and then said member piece is slipped into placein the pistol including the rubber band. The rubber band is picked up at its opposite end from that of the end secured at the hook I4 and is brought out through the aperture 2| by means of the hooked crochet needle or similar tool already mentioned. The end loop is then traversed by a small stick or piece of wood I6, and said wooden piece is fitted into the slot I6a, thus securing said rubber band I5a to the extreme end of the handle Illc.
Other means for securing the aforementioned rubber; bands in position may be employed,
Thetrigger 22, as shown in Figs. 10 and 12, has only one function, that of being a fingerhold for the use of the pistol. A trigger guard 23 is also provided. In operating the pistol toy the child pulls the thumb piece I 41) backward and then quickly releases his hold of said thumb piece thereby allowing the hammer member to strike forward under the stored up pressure of the stretched rubber band I5 or I5a which causes the head I4a of the member piece I4 to sharply strike the pan I9, therebyproducing a short resonant sound resembling, in a manner, a pistol shot. I 1
Referring to Figs. 15 to 19, inclusive, which illustrate a modified arrangement of the toy pistol invention-it will be noted that the hammer member piece I42 is somewhat differently shaped from that of the hammer member piece I4 shown in Fig. 13. The hammer member piece I42 is provided with only one hookingportion I47 for securing one end of the loop of the rubber band or resilient spring I5a, the opposite end thereof being secured at the butt end of the handle I00 in the same manner as described in securing the rubber band I5a in Fig. 9. The hammer member I 4i is provided with a trigger portion 22a the band I5a causing a second clicking sound.
In this manner the child has the satisfaction of producing two distinct clicks with each pull and"let go ofthe trigger portion 22a. A similar trigger guard 23 is provided on the modified toy as that shown in Figs. 9 and 10.
It will be readily seen that the toy pistol consists of-only three parts, that of the two castings or mouldings which are joined together forming the pistol proper, and a hammer member formed in a single piece. readily insertable and extractible and without the complication of additional working parts common to this class of toy, yetaffording the function of a cheap and amusing toy. The hammer member is preferably moulded or cast in a'similar manner to that of the two'castings or moulds Illa. and lb, and when moulded of the composite material as stated, said member requires no metals or materials in its composition vital to the war effort.
It is understood that'the particular toy and modification thereof described above is intended to be merely illustrative andnot limitative of the invention, since it is obvious that the invention may be effected by a toy arranged in other different ways, within the scope of the claims.
Now, having described my invention, what I claim is:
1. In a toy pistol of the class described, having a channel-opening extending from the top to the underside thereof, a hammer member slidably insertable within said channel opening and seated therein, said hammer member having a hook integral therewith, a rubber band or loop shaped resilient spring attachable to said securing means,
securing means within said pistol toy, said rubber band being secured between said hammer securing means and said inner pistol securing means, whereby said hammer is held in resilient position in the seat thereof and, when pulled away from the pan portion ,of said pistol toy will cause said band to stretch, and upon the finger release of said hammer member will cause the contraction of said band and the consequent striking of said hammer member upon the pan portion of the pistol toy aforesaid. 2. In a toy pistol of the class described having a channel opening extending from the upper porenabling the mounting of said rubber band between either said barrel bore securing means and said hammer member securing means, or between said hammer member andsaid butt securing means, whereby said rubber band is stretched in a manner to resiliently hold said hammer memher in the seat thereof, and also to hold the head of said hammer member in closed position againsi the pan portion of said toy; and the pulling away of said hammer member causing said band to stretch, and the sudden release of said hammer member causing the snapping back thereof sharply against the pan portion of the pistol toy aforesaid,
3. In a toy pistol of the class described, said toy being molded or cast in two separate parts, said parts when substantially joined together being provided with a channel opening extending from the top to the bottom of said pistol centrally positioned approximately between the barrel and handle thereof, a hammer member formed in one integral part slidably insertable into said channel aperture and likewise extractable therefrom said hammer member operably moveable in said channel after said insertion and the seating therein, said hammer member having securing means integral therewith, a resilient band secured to said securing means, said resilient band being also attached at its opposite end to securing means within said pistol and held in tension between said hammer securing means and said inner pistol securing means whereby said hammer member is held in resilient position within said channel aperture and upon said hammer member being pulled against the tension of said resilient band by the finger of the hand holding said pistol and then released, the upper or head portion of said hammer will strike a portion of the pistol body.
