A "new toy gun" refers to the latest generation of toy firearms, which have evolved significantly from classic models. While old-school toy guns often relied on simple mechanisms like caps or pistons, modern toy guns incorporate advanced technology for a more interactive and realistic play experience.

Diverse Ammunition: Instead of just caps or corks, they fire soft projectiles like foam darts (e.g., Nerf blasters), gel beads (gel blasters), or water (electric water guns).

Enhanced Technology: Many new models are battery-operated or electric, offering features like automatic firing, electronic sound effects, flashing lights, and even compatibility with mobile apps for augmented reality games.

Safety Features: To prevent them from being mistaken for real firearms, new toy guns often have bright, non-realistic colors and unique designs. The projectiles are also made from soft, harmless materials.

Variety of Styles: They come in a wide range of designs, from futuristic blasters and sci-fi themes to models based on popular video games and movies.
