From what I understand this is to help prevent "glorifying guns to kids" or whatever. It's a thing.

Nerf guns and gun accessories are already glorifying guns to kids, I dunno what on earth they're on about. I mean, I understand the thought process but if they don't want to 'glorify guns to kids' maybe not just include them at all?
