"I always enjoy learning about new-to-me firearms and would be interested in hearing about anyone's personal experience with the gun."
I saw one of these in a store window in the fifties. I was too young then to buy one but always wanted one. In the seventies I visited the NRA museum in Washington, DC and saw one on display.
Some time later I spoke about it to a gun store owner friend in Maryland. He smiled, walked into the back room and brought out two, one nickel plated and the other in blue, both new in the box. He knew the designer and had bought his remaining stock. I was so excited. He then proceeded to tell me all about the man and the pistol's history.
Naturally, I had to buy three, a blue one for shooting and one of each color for my collection. They've always reminded me of something Buck Rogers or Flash Gordon might have carried, so very cool.
A few years later I traded my space age shooter to a friend who wanted one in the worst way. I've never fired the remaining pair of safe queens. Considering today's prices, perhaps it's time to auction them off - but they would be difficult to part with.
Still, for the right price ... maybe.
