Although I’ve never seen or held one, I’ve always had an affinity for the [now] retro-futuristic, Art Deco looks of the original, 1950’s Whitney Wolverine. It was pretty good looking with the blued finish, but particularly amazing in the relatively rare nickel chrome. For the last decade, Olympic Arms has manufactured a modern remake of the Wolverine that’s pretty faithful to the original design but for one large change; it’s polymer instead of aluminum. Although the gloss of the finishes is lost in the polymer versions, and the feel in the hand is obviously going to be different . . .
it still looks like a fun plinker and has that retro space age ray gun aesthetic. The trigger was significantly nicer than I expected. If the MSRP were $100 lower, I probably would have made an impulse purchase by now. At its $295 MSRP, I’m going to have to take one for a test drive first.
What do y’all think? Is there interest in a review?
