I wonder what they would have done to my 3rd grade friend in 1953 when he brought in his dad’s M-1 rifle with bayonet for show and tell. By the way it was a big hit with all the kids including the teacher.

In 1960, a classmate of mine brought a "German bullet" to class for show and tell--I believe it was a .50 cal. round, a war souvenir from WWII. Had he done it today, the school would probably have been put on lockdown and the student packed off to finish his education at a California Youth Authority facility.
