Another ID Needed (Space Water Gun)

[Joe K.]

Spotted this in a 1974 M. Pressner & Co. wholesale catalog:

Anyone recognize it?

The other hand drawn guns appear faithful to the actual pieces:

I've checked the Database and a few other sites but have come up empty.

Lots of distinguishing parts: transparent plastic water pistol, ribbed grip, that rather large site, distinctive barrel.

If anyone can I.D. it, I'll add it to the Timeline.

Here's the BIN catalog listing:

Thanks, Joe. A classic design considering it's a 1974 catalog. 

 

Usual problem with adding these guns to the database: how do you describe them without a name or maker? Perhaps we need an extra word: unidentified. I'd enjoy revisiting them from time to time to see if we can clear up the mystery.

I've added the gun. I'll also use the "unidentified" tag to add a number of images sitting on my computer.
