Model T-A

(The Model T-A "the assassin" was the first metal raygun designed and fabricated by Tullio. The first one off the production line was presented to noted science fiction author A.E. Van Vogt, whose work titled The Weapon Shops of Isher greatly inspired Tullio. The Model T-A body was machined from  aluminum, then anodized. Each raygun required 6 hours of hand sanding before the anodizing treatment. It was last produced in 1993.)

Model H

(The Model H brought Isher a slight brush with fame when it was featured in Playboy magazine, February 1992. This raygun was also machined from aluminum, hand sanded and polished, not anodized. The eventual production run was less than 12 items. Each one required more than 30 hours of machining.)
