Back in the 50s high schools had competing .22 rifle teams. It was nothing to see a kid carrying a rifle in school.. Some still had them as late as the 70s when I attended. The Sergeant of my Air Force ROTC class had a daughter at a neighboring high school who was enrolled in their Marine Corps ROTC class, and was a champion shooter on their shooting team. If you looked out into the student parking lot at my school at least 20% of the pick ups had gun racks, nearly all had a rifle or shotgun hanging from them, and this was in the suburbs. I don't think many of the boys who attended came to school without a Buck 110 folder, it was practically part of the unofficial student dress code.

The crazy thing about all those guns at school, very little violence and NO mass shootings. I credit it to anyone trying something stupid didn't know which one of those redneck kids would shoot back.
