Made of aluminum in the 1950s by Crescent Toys, the Atomic Jet-Gun is the English equivalent to the American-made Hiller Atom Ray gun. Similar in design to the Atom Ray with a top mounted water tank, protruding barrel and ribbed handle, the Atomic Jet-Gun nevertheless differs from the American gun in that its trigger is mounted below the barrel. (In the Atom Ray the trigger and barrel are the same piece.) Despite these similarities, the Atomic Jet should be judged on its own merits and is, in this way, a masterpiece. (In addition to the plain version of the Atomic Jet-Gun shown here, another version came identified with a Dan Dare decal.) Length 6 inches.
