A mall Santa refused Michael DeCarlos request for a Nerf gun for Christmas, so now the National Rifle Association is stepping in to help the 4-year-old expand his toy arsenal.
The gun rights group released a video of Santa delivering a sack of the popular toys to the childs home in Illinois as part of their mission to make Michaels Christmas the best ever.
Mean Santa wont be happy I have this, DeCarlo says in the clip before emerging victorious in a Nerf battle with this more generous and sunglasses-wearing version of St. Nick.
Earlier this month, DeCarlo had asked a Santa Claus at the Harlem Irving Plaza shopping center in Norridge for a Nerf gun for Christmas but was promptly denied. That exchange was captured on video taken by his grandmother and was then posted on Facebook and went viral.
The footage shows the Santa denying DeCarlos request, saying, Nope, no guns.
When his mother clarified that he was asking for a Nerf gun, he said, Nope, not even a Nerf gun.
