Whitney Wolverine pistol

Designed by Robert Hillberg c.1953 using his experience for the USAF and High Standard Manufacturing Co, manufactured by Whitney Firearms Inc. c.1956~58 - serial number 25517.
.22LR 10-round removable box magazine, blowback semi-automatic, nickel plated, light-weight aluminium frame.
The company was named for its proximity to Eli Whitney’s old factory but has otherwise no connection to the early 19th century inventor, while the gun was named after Hillberg’s favourite handegg team the Wolverines, of the University of Michigan.
This pistol’s incredibly 50′s lines did not save it from its cheaper competitors, and its sales never picked up enough to turn a profit.
