...I learned "stuff" about guns at the feed store. Cleaning tips, best this or that, trigger job "tricks"...all of it. I guess the moderators back then were the "old guys" who sat around in a cloud of smoke drinking coffee.
Also we did not have a shooting range. Never even thought of that concept. Went out in the country. Pay somebody to shoot on their property? What a great idea!
I thought everybody on the planet reloaded their own rounds.
The Sears catalog was a big deal at my house. When it came everybody had their turn to look through the pages and dream. Yes....Sears sold guns and reloading equipment.
What else guys? What was your experience in this shooting community before the internet?
