All 4 students at my school had a brace of cap guns for recess. I was Hopalong Cassidy, another was Roy Rogers, another Gene Autry and the fourth was Red Ryder.
We had a serious shortage of Injuns to shoot, but we made do.

The Korean War was going on then. We didn't understand exactly what it was all about, but we all buried our guns in the dirt bank in the gulch where we played during 3rd recess so that Stalin couldn't find them while we were not in school.

Then we each got on our horses and rode home.
