The earliest ones were marked OMC for Ordnance Manufacturing Corporation. They were designed by Harry Sanford , the designer of the original Auto-Mag. The early guns were very good guns. I carried one for almost 30yrs. After a few spots that were sand-blasted a bit too rough were smoothed out , the were very reliable guns. Mine is as reliable as a Craftsman hammer. Quality slipped with each later company .



Only reason I still don't carry it is bacause I bought a Kel Tec .380. Just as small , 1/2 the weight.
