When I was in high school back in the early '60s Ohio had widespread marksmanship competition.

On Friday afternoon after lunch I would check out a Remington 513T rifle and 150 rounds of ammunition from the shop teacher and carry it in school until I walked home.
On Monday morning I turned the rifle back in. There were 6 of us on the rifle team.
We traveled to schools around the state for competition. Some of the schools had shooting ranges in their basements, some used NG armories and some met at outdoor ranges.
Nobody got shot.

I still carry a gun. I never shot anybody.

I'm a gun owner and support gun control. I think the more people that have guns walkingman Nov 2021 #1
