Manufactured by Whitney Firearms Co., North Haven, Connecticut beginning in 1955, the modern design pistol could be mass produced economically. Originally called “Lightening,” the Wolverine name was added later and then dropped after a complaint by Lyman, who made Wolverine rifle scopes. Sale of the company and distribution difficulties caused production to cease prior to 1965. Tested pistols were well made and reliable.
