I used to take shooting lessons at school when I was in junior high. They had an indoor shooting range set up for high school ROTC but the shooting lessons were for everyone.
They were nice match rifles.
And like you, my dad carried his gun to school (kept it in the cloak room) so he could hunt before and after class.
We had rifles at YMCA camp. All the 8 year olds and above shot.
Then we headed to the archery range.
My husband also carried a knife to school and many had rifles of shotguns in the trunk of the car. This was the rural South in the 50s. My daughter was on her high school and college rifle team as well, a national competitor.
Ooh, I’m just shuddering, trembling with fear.
BTW, my Dad taught us the basic of shooting. Safety first.
