Bob-
As usual, a great story with lots of nice history 'tidbits' in there...I enjoy those!
Gosh, hard to believe the RMS technology is over 20 years old now. I remember seeing the 18MM reload hardware in Gary's room at Bruno's at LDRS-10. I remember how young Gary's son was then (Brian I think is his name)....he must have only been 8-9 at the time. I recall him playing wth some kind of magician set or something similar in the back area of the Gerlach Community meeting house during some of the TRA members meetings in the eves at LDRS-10.
BTW, if Estes EVER re-releases the Centuri 1/45 scale Little Joe II, please don't ever let on that you 'like it'!
