Greetings,

Back in the early 1980's I was in high school in Wyoming. We had student s who did exactly what was described. Went sage chicken hunting with friends then went on to school afterwards. They would stop long enough to drop off their game, shower, pen the dog up for the day, and then go to class. Their shotguns were left in the pickup all the time. It was something that was just was.

We had one incident where some crazy threatened one of the faculty with a handgun in my senior year, and one of my fellow students crept out and got his unloaded shotgun (he was out of ammo from the morning's hunting). He came up where the person could see him and pointed it at the person. The police arrived a few minutes later and took the crazy person off. The student was given an award for his quick thinking and bravery.
Now, at the same school, a student in shop class made a gun rack for his father, and each of the cross peices looked like a shotgun. He was expelled for having a gun on campus. They weren't guns, the barrels were flat and weren't hollow, and were obviously made of wood yet he was still expelled under the zero tolerance policy. What a difference 20 years makes.
