This may be the most replied to post ever! Near 80 myself, I'm enjoying all these replies immensely and feel the need to add my 2 cents worth by saying I used to ride my bike with a neighborhood friend several miles thru the city from home to the garbage dump behind the airport with our .22 rifles across our handlebars to shoot Jackrabbits and bring them home in our baskets to give to a mechanic at our local Conoco station for his dinner. My mom had a saving trait that I inherited and still have a slew of childhood toys, i.e. Captain Midnight secret decoder whistle, Murray fire truck peddle car, cap guns, toy soldiers, etc. Memories all.

HMM? Two guys cruising the streets with rifles. Now we all know how gangs got started. See what kind of mess you got us into? Let me guess the guns weren't registered and you didn't have an open carry permit. To top it off, you use the lame excuse that you had a valid reason for carrying the guns. Jackrabbits I suspect was a code name for a rival gang. It was the cap guns that started you down the wrong path wasn't it? Giggles! I still have my John Deere pedal tractor dad got at a farm sale for three dollars. Thanks for bringing back some fond memories from my younger days!!
