Abstract
A toy projectile launcher includes a plunger in an air chamber. The plunger is engaged with a spring and is able to be coupled to a non-locking handle. The plunger is movable between an inactive position and a firing position. The non-locking handle moves the plunger from the inactive position to the firing position to compress the spring, and is unable to lock the spring at the firing position. A plunger release mechanism couples and releases the handle from the plunger. In the firing position a trigger is capable of engaging the plunger release mechanism, and the trigger is located at a distance from the non-locking handle such that both the non-locking handle and the trigger cannot be engaged simultaneously by a single hand of a user. Both the non-locking handle and the trigger must be engaged simultaneously to launch the projectile.
