Question WAMO Powermaster Rifle

Here's one you don't see every day. This is the first and ONLY WAMO Powermaster Rifle I've seen in over 50 years of interest in guns! I would like to learn what the actual value is of such an oddity.

Like the more commonly encountered WAMO Powermaster Pistol, this too is a single-shot .22rf.

It's one of THREE firearms produced under the WAMO logo for "SPORTS PRODUCTS" by the fun folks at WHAM-O who brought us such toys as the Frisbee and the Hula Hoop.

Not widely advertised, the WAMO SPORTS products, such as Malaysian Throwing Knives; blowguns; dueling swords (epees); crossbows, etc., were featured on the front of other WHAM-O products' packaging such as their very popular Hunting Slingshot.

The "magazine" is actually a little container to store a couple of boxes of .22rf LR ammo.



The "magazine" on this one is a very nicely done reproduction based on observation of another complete WAMO rifle.

Anyone got an idea of its value?

I've got their Powermaster Pistol so I still am looking to obtain one of their WAMO Hamilton Dueling Pistol, another single-shot .22rf they once offered.

What part of "shall not be infringed" do you not understand?

Default Re: WAMO Powermaster Rifle

If memory serves, there was an article about Whammo guns in the Shotgun New about a year ago. Check their website.
