30 years ago I could carry a gun to school for hunting after.
I did too 40 years ago and I did carry my .22 rifle (for the occasional rabbits I came across) and a 12g shotgun in my truck window gun rack everywhere I went in my truck. Many other folks I knew did as well. It was as common as having your poddle skirt girlfriend on the bench seat right next to you helping one to shift gears. But those were some more simpler times.
