OK-Just how far back do you go?
I remember when you were able to carry a shot gun onto a plane and the "Stu" simply put it in the coat closet and then upon deplaning, simply handed it back to you!

In about 1998, my carry on bag was full of tools. Wrenches, screwdrivers, tire irons, the lot.
I was working for a motocross racing team and I flew from Ohio to Washington. I remember someone looked in the bag and sent me on my way.
I didn't have a bottle opener though!

I remember a publication maybe Weekly Reader that was made for jr high students that had an ad on the back for a Savage/Stevens model 24 22/410 combo gun.

I graduated high school in 87,
I took a flintlock fowler to school for a speech, on the bus, bout 85.
No question when I got on the bus.
Took it to the principal's office only because it would not fit in my locker.

I graduated in 91 and there were still plenty of rifles and shotguns in truck windows, and a good portion of male students carried knives of one kind or another.

i duck hunted many times before school my senior year of high school. i brought my shotgun into the principal's office for safe keeping till time to go home. he was an avid hunter also. i always had to divulge the places hunted and what was taken. occasionally had to share some feathers with him, for lure making.

Probably around Rend Lake then or Carlyle Lake would be my guess. I am in those areas. You duck hunters are fanatics! We possum hunters are more laid back around here.

Had a very close friend born and raised in Cairo. New all the locals and really had great hunts. I remember Cypress and shooting down in a "flooded" Cypress tree area! They really flew thru the trees carrying the mail. Fun Times.

When my best friend and I were going to Christian boarding school in Oklahoma (we lived in Amarillo) we thought we were sooooooo cool because we got some cigarettes and then sat in the smoking section all the way to Tallequah.......well, Tulsa anyway.
