    $1,300.00

    The Liberator Pistol (U.S. Model 42) is a .45 ACP firearm designed during World War II with a 4-inch smoothbore barrel, using nonstrategic materials to conserve critical resources. Notable for its simplistic design, it featured a wood ejector rod and was packaged individually in a paraffin-coated cardboard box, secured with a wooden spacer. Each package included 10 rounds of ammunition and an instruction sheet with graphical guidance. Produced in 1942, it was primarily intended for European resistance movements, but most were used by resistance forces in the Philippines and China, with around one million units manufactured. The Liberator Pistol exemplifies wartime ingenuity and resourcefulness.
