Meadow Lark too. Like your Granny it was to supplement the salt pork that got everyone through winter. I asked what kind of gun he used and he laughed. Ammunition was too expensive and they had no money anyway. They threw rocks or used a homemade “bean flip” or “ni$$@r shooter”, his words without ill intent. Said they used old pink model A intestines that were natural rubber. To score one was a special delight. A fine supply of slingshots and resulting tablefare. They shot squirrels, cottontails, anything not quick enough or lucky to dodge the hand selected projectiles. This was mainly during the depression. Folks were poor enough it made little difference to them, that had to work hard anyway.
