If the old Sears catalogs were lying around, they must have had indoor plumbing before that date!
My high school algebra teacher had me stop by his house after school and gave me a Polish Radom 9mm he carried in place of his 1911 45acp in WWII. Said his twin boys were getting into everything and he didn't want them dragging the pistol around the house. I was 17 at the time. Today, they would place him in jail immediately for giving that 9mm to an impressionable boy. Of course, it wasn't the only pistol I owned among the other long guns.
Most of the "country" vehicles had a firearm locked inside. We hunted on the way home and ran trap lines on the way to school.
Those were the good times.
