When I was 16, some 35 years ago, I carried a 22 rifle everywhere I went.
So did most of my friends.
We would take our rifles (or shotguns depending on the season) to school, leave them in plain sight, sometimes in the back window of a pickup, then after school go straight to where we were hunting and hunt til dark.
No one thought a thing about it.
Today, you would be suspended in a heartbeat.
Tell your story.
What did you do in your youth involving guns that just would not be tolerated today.
