My Mom had an old typewriter when I was a kid (Manual, not electric--although that came later)
Bu I've never seen one like this--it looks even older than my Mom's old typewriter.
Had those! They had two piece bullets that the bullet would fly but the shell would stay in the gun somehow.
This thread makes me remember stuff I'd forgotten existed.
Yes there are table hockey games, but not like this--no slots to move the men around.
My aunt had a game like this when I was a kid--and it was old then, but I loved playing it.
We played it with a marble--and we're fortunate nobody put an eye out.

We had Bobby Hull hockey. Which was pretty much the same thing but with a puck dropper.
Your marble thing made me think of these for some reason.
We used to take the suction cups off the tips, and put them in pencil sharpeners. Then we'd threaten each other with them when we got into fights. Thankfully nobody ever got hurt.
SO much better than the vibrating electric football game!Yes there are table hockey games, but not like this--no slots to move the men around.

There was an arcade near me which closed a few years ago, and they had a game like this as well as a mechanical baseball game from the same era, in the same sort of case.
