An exceptional piece of early sci-fi pop culture history. This lot features an original 1930s Daisy Buck Rogers XZ-38 metal ray gun paired with a post-WWII 1940s "Atomic Pistol" embossed leather holster.
During the mid-1940s, Daisy rebranded their space toy line to capture the post-war Atomic craze, releasing new leather holsters labeled "Atomic Pistol."
It was very common for young fans to rig their trusty, original 1930s XZ-38 sidearms into these newly released 1940s holsters, making this a period-correct, highly desirable combination.
Trigger pull retains a strong, crisp mechanical pop action—a rare find for an internal spring assembly of this age.
Deeply embossed leather featuring planets, rocket ships, and bold "Buck Rogers ATOMIC PISTOL" typography across the front strap. Leather is soft and supple and remains intact with original straps and rivets present.
