I've uhhh not seen much contrary evidence to say you are incorrectMaybe the old ways were correct in not giving women rights

Midgets deserve protection.These guns are a real threat to miniature people.
F-ing looney tunes bitch attempting to project her lunacy on normal society. Scheels should respond to her a la Musk.
70's for me, and in small town California (red town). We ran around openly with toy guns and later BB guns then 22's.It is so sad. Toy guns were a part of my childhood growing up in the 60's. And nobody was bringing real guns to school and shooting up the place.

I wonder if she has big orange tips on her dildo collection so they don’t go out and rape the neighbors on their own.

I think Mattel had a collection series some 60+ years ago. I still have my Luger and Springfield with bayonet Somewhere around here.Fixt !
You could put your eye out with that!
I remember walking thru my town in the late 60’s with a rifle over my shoulder (in a cloth case) and nobody blinked. We used to shoot in a 50’ range in the basement of a local church!70's for me, and in small town California (red town). We ran around openly with toy guns and later BB guns then 22's.
In first grade I brought to school a very realistic looking diecast Luger cap gun, but it was ~1/3 scale and obviously not real. One of my @sshole friends fired off a cap in the classroom then tossed it back to me. Everybody laughed and of course I was busted, but the teacher only took it for the day and at end of day informed me if she sees it again it's hers. No liberal tears or pants wetting by first graders, so what the hell is wrong with the grown loonies of today?
My theory is that they are all weak minded patsies facilitating the modern day version of feudal Japan sword hunts.
‘Sword Hunts’: Samurais Seize Control
Way before my time, but I was told there was a target shooting league that rotated between the Norton, WPI, Morgan, and other company or university on-site ranges.A few memories:
All of those things now strike me as unobtanium. This is the problem with tolerating the Karens. They run right off the rails once they have a big enough head of steam and it's a bitch trying to stop them.
- Walking down a Connecticut road while visiting a friend, both of us carrying our BB guns. We were just around 10 years old at the time, so +/- 1968. Nobody looked twice.
- A week at summer camp a year or two later, so 1970ish, shooting a single shot .22 on the camp's range.
- Meeting the guy who would end up being my college roommate for two years at the school's pistol range in the basement of the gym at WPI in Worcester in the fall of 1975 when we were both freshmen. Stroll on to the gym, drop a few bucks, they'd hand you a pistol, a wood block with ammo, and a target.
You mention CT. If that camp was in Granby, when I was a kid I shot at that same range.A week at summer camp a year or two later, so 1970ish, shooting a single shot .22 on the camp's range.
I went to Wentworth (didn't have the grades to get into WPI). There was an indoor range there back in the 70's. I am sure it is long gone by now.Way before my time, but I was told there was a target shooting league that rotated between the Norton, WPI, Morgan, and other company or university on-site ranges.
Northeastern had a rifle range (was used by ROTC). It was available to any student. This was in 1972ish.I went to Wentworth (didn't have the grades to get into WPI). There was an indoor range there back in the 70's. I am sure it is long gone by now.
I was visiting the friend at his house in CT. I lived down the Cape and the camp was in Brewster. Same deal with the block of wood drilled for .22s, both there and at WPI (but you got more than 5 at WPI).You mention CT. If that camp was in Granby, when I was a kid I shot at that same range.
Single shot 22's and they gave you a block of wood with 5 holes drilled in it to hold your allotted 5 rounds.
@pinefd I need one of those single actions to fit between the Ruger Bearcat and the NAA minis. Link?I'm kinda partial to my half scale, semi-fully functional models:

Be forewarned, they're pretty pricey (but very cool): https://www.waynedriskillminiatures.com/revolvers/uberti-colt-saas/@pinefd I need one of those single actions to fit between the Ruger Bearcat and the NAA minis. Link?
'To be fair, not everything was rose petals and BJ's. During the same era, you could smoke out back behind the HS during your designated breaks and in collitch? Well, you could smoke IN the classrooms during class.A few memories:

"The Smoking Pit", a small circular area in the parking lot where smoking was allowed behind my high school. Didn't know anyone in college who smoked, however.'To be fair, not everything was rose petals and BJ's.

To be fair, the fact that I had the windows on my 1970 Mach 1 rolled down when I did an endo on the Mass Pike one August afternoon is the only reason that the truck driver who got me out was able to pull the passenger door open. Had the window been up, the door would have been jammed into the mud.Related - ever smell a 60's or 70's vintage car driving down the road. Imagine it's July. You're stuck in the SS tunnel on a 90 degree afternoon in bumper to bumper traffic with all 4 windows rolled - ROLLED (wtf is a power window?) down.
Well, there you go. Another solid plus for the good old days !Oh, and they hadn't invented the Glock yet. So. . . .
