Abstract

A piston structure for a toy gun includes a piston body and a detachable toothed member. The piston body has a chute which is axially disposed on an outer surface of the piston body. The detachable toothed member is made of a metallic material and moveably disposed in the chute. The detachable toothed includes a plurality of teeth which are equally spaced in a lengthwise direction. The piston structure of the present invention provides a longer service life. In case the teeth of the detachable toothed member suffer a lot of wear and tear, the detachable toothed member can be detached from the chute and replaced with a new one to save the cost and to provide an environmental protection effect.
