When I was in ROTC in high school back in the mid-70’s, we drilled with Remington Model 30 Springfield bolt-action rifles. They could not be fired, but I guess they’d probably cause libtards to lose control of their bowels today.

Actually if you’re not careful spinning or tossing it, you can hit yourself in the face. I’ve seen that happen more than once.

Mid 60s our JROTC drilled with M1s lacking only the firing pins.

"I went to an HS football game this past fall and, as the color guard performed with these things, I said to my friend: I wonder how long it will be before the fake guns are outlawed?
It won't be long before school boards start deciding that using these rifle-shaped props "sends an inappropriate message," and they will be banned in favor of some other type of baton.

I was NJROTC, too. Sometimes we would visit a nearby Army ROTC school that had an indoor rifle range.

I wish we’d had M1s. Our Springfields had no firing pins, and the barrels were plugged.

They USED to be a full 2x6 when we were kids. But they are lucky to be 1 1/2 x 5 now. Everything gets reduced these days.

I came here to look at this “rifle.”
Thats not a rifle. I am not even sure calling it a stock would be accurate.
That is a board.

It is sooooo stupid, as is turning over our kids to the public schools in general.
Plus, how different is a suspected “rifle case” from what could be the case for a sports stick (lacrosse, field hockey, ice hockey), a poster or a musical instrument?

Early ‘80s, ours had metal poured down the barrel and the bolts welded shut.

My daughter broke her nose with one. She did a quad spin indoors for a show. She was under the basketball hoop. It did not go as planned. Don’t think she ever performed indoors after that. Kept t on an open field.
