SUPER ATOMIC GUN - NEW ZEALAND 1952
Manufacturer: Unknown possibly Lincoln Toys
Brand: none
Country: New Zealand
Description: This gun is a paper buster and is a copy of a Langson paper buster.
There are no indications on the gun as to where it was made or by whom. However, it has only showed up for sale on New Zealand sites so is most likely from there. A New Zealand toy collector suggested it might have been made by Lincoln toys as they were involved in making pressed steel guns. As to age it was probably made in the 1950s but no exact date exists. One thing to note is that this gun is missing the tube on the front that gives the gun a "barrel" - see top left image for reconstructed look - this part of the gun would be easy to lose as it is just a tube of steel with two small tabs holding it to the slide.
There is now a dating for this raygun. It turns up in a newspaper ad dated 17th Dec 1952
