Whitney Wolverines live!

I have yet to see one of the new Wolverines, but am fortunate enough to have an original Whitney Wolverine. Hands-down it is the best shooting .22 I own. The grips fit my hand perfectly, and much like a Luger it is a natural pointer with an excellent trigger pull. Everybody who shoots mine doesn't want to give it back! It's no surprise to me that it is now being reproduced; although I am a little dissapointed that the Olympic copy adds some additional features not found on the originals--like the rib on top and relief panel ahead of the trigger guard. IMO, the original has much cleaner lines, and a classier appearance with the 2-tone black finish and brown grips. Definitely a design ahead of it's time!
