Abstract

A toy gun for firing paint bullet includes a casing symmetrically combined with first and second halves, a chamber in a rear portion for placing a mini-gas can, a barrel having a tubular loader in a front portion, a tubular shaft seat including a hollow shaft and a stinger disposed between the mini-gas can and the barrel, a trigger operating a rotor to actuate the shaft and the stinger to pierce the front end of the mini-gas can to provide suitable air pressure to fire the paint bullet inside the barrel and a safety catch controlling the trigger from accidental operation. The mini-gas can is readily replaceable in order to provide great convenience to the user.
