I'm probably old enough to remember that too but I don't.I'm old enough to remember buying .22 LR for .50 cents a box of fifty.
When in High School it was common for those with access to a car to have guns. Going shooting or hunting after. Or to show off to others between class the new one we had. No one got shot, Police were not called. Principal brought in his rifle one day to loan to another student who got a Deer tag and wanted to use it. Imagine that today?It's quite amazing, when you think about it. My friends and I used to take our .22's and walk along busy streets, headed for the public hunting grounds in west Vancouver. We were all about 12 years old. There might have been five of us. We didn't shoot each other or shoot inanimate objects. We did shoot rabbits, dress them out and bring the hides home to be tanned. The thought of doing something stupid just never occured to any of us. I wonder what's changed besides the passage of time?
yup you and me both, I used to take my first hunting rifle on the bus for show and tell in the 4th grade, no one ever batted a eye, my Dad made sure it was unloaded of course.It's quite amazing, when you think about it.

If I bought Shorts for .29 instead of LR for .50, I had movie money too.I'm old enough to remember buying .22 LR for .50 cents a box of fifty.
Yes and I can imagine liberal minds dissolving just before the SWAT team shows up...When I was in elementary school (nowhere WA state in the 60s) they'd occasionally have kind of a take your dad to work day thing and the coolest best one ever was a western quick draw dude in full cowboy regalia doing two handed pistol spins and throws!
Man, can you imagine that happening today
