School Gun Safety Class 1956
Updated: January 9th, 2013
Retronaut has Life Magazine photos of an Indiana school’s gun safety class (1956). Just look at the expression on the faces of those boys 🙂 I bet they had been looking forward to this lesson all year.
How times have changed. Today, in classrooms around the country, the DEA are the only ones professional enough, in this room, that I know of, to carry a Glock .40 😉

I founded TFB in 2007 and over 10 years worked tirelessly, with the help of my team, to build it up into the largest gun blog online. I retired as Editor in Chief in 2017. During my decade at TFB I was fortunate to work with the most amazing talented writers and genuinely good people!

When I tell someone at our college that I want a gun license, they ALWAYS look at me as on weirdo and ask "you want to shoot all of us here?" This is just for show people's relationship to the firearms in Czech Republic.
In Alaska we have "AK studies" most schools give you training with .22s, and JROTC still has rifles, there just air rifles.
