My brother an I would walk with shot guns about 1/2 mile to the big farm fields and hunt phesant. On the way back sometimes people would stop in cars and ask "Did ya get anything" or "hows the hunting today" it was not out of place at all. I had a friend I worked with that grew up in Wisconsin who told me when he was a kid they would take their shotguns to school and put them in their lockers for the day so after school they could go hunting. I have no reason not to believe the story.

Can you imagine today.

Yep, we would do the same thing. I still have the stevens/savage (now two different companies) 410 that my gradnfather bought new. I inherited it when I was 14 (graduated from the sheridan pellet gun I got at 12). We would go and shoot marsh hens after school. We would shoot robins by the bag full and my grandmother would make stew!
