Lunch time memories

I was in highschool in the US the 1979-1980 school year. It didn't take me long to figure out that if I hit the hallway walking fast I'd be near the front of the lunch line. Scarf the day's offering and hit the hallway walking fast would get me into the library where I'd have access to gun and other outdoor magazines until the next class started. The curse of speed eating has haunted me to this day, but that's another issue.

I recall reading a story, can't remember by whom or in what gun rag, methinks it was Guns and Ammo, but might have been another, anyhoo, they gave the stainless Redhawk a thorough going over, testing, evaluating, even leaving it soaking in water to check the corrosion resistance. Details elude me after all these years, but the result was a desire to have one of them there sixguns someday. 45 years later "someday" still hasn't happened. But I've always been a fan of the idea.
