L'ATOMIC INTERPLANETAIRE - MAKER? - FRANCE
Le Pistolet Atomic. L'Atomic Interplanétaire. Le pistolet électronique moderne a ailerons. This is an 8" 20cm diecast cap firing space gun with rings on the barrel, side fin and a basic telescopic sight. It is a copy of the Stevens Space Police Neutron Blaster cap gun, but this one is in gold and it lacks the front sight on the barrel tip. Two halves are held together with screws. The "ailerons" are fins. The box is essentially the same as used for the Junior version. It claims that the gun is electronic but this is clearly not the case.
Quality control was not too important for the manufacturer. The few known examples have flaws in the casting which have been sprayed over, indicating that the company was happy to release imperfect castings.
Gold painted die-cast metal cap firing gun. 8 ins long.
