Abstract

A device includes a housing and a hammer. A motor is coupled to the hammer to move the hammer away from a side of the housing and release the hammer. A tension spring is coupled to the hammer to cause the hammer to strike the housing after the hammer is moved away from the housing by the motor and released. The housing acts as a sounding device to simulate the sound of gunfire.
