I had this sweet die-cast 6-shooter ring cap pistol (cowboy style) and it had great weight to it - felt like a "real" gun, whereas most cap guns felt fake. So one birthday - maybe I was 9 or 10 I had 4 friends over and we went on an "army mission" in the snow and my one friend asked if he could play with that gun for the mission - I said sure and then after we came in and got out of our wet snow-suits (it was February) somehow in the confusion I forgot to get it back from him. Don't know if he stole it or it got lost out in the "field" or if he took it home by mistake or what - I still remember that gun - and here's the kicker - 25 years later, the first house my wife and I bought is 3 houses down from his and his wife's house in a town that neither one of us grew up in - and we haven't really spoke since we were kids......

Talk about odd....
