peashooters
Children's projectile tubes
Peashooters are toy tubes through which dried peas or small pellets are blown at targets.
Children use them for mischief and play.
Figuratively, a peashooter is any weapon or tool laughably inadequate for the task: Bringing that peashooter to a gunfight won't help you.
