Can anyone identify this butterfly ratchet?

[IntrstlarOvrdrve]

I ran around to a few yard sales, and a pawn shop or two today and picked up some stuff. I can't seem to identify this butterfly gun though? I figured since it worked and was marked $5 it couldnt hurt.

While i have a post, I might as well show off what else I bought..
I picked up two seperate SK socket sets, both 1/2 SAE sets. I bought the first one at a yard sale, and paid $30...with an SK breaker bar and a few extensions. I found the second set at a pawn shop later that day...identical sets. I paid $25 for the pawn shop set, but got a craftsman breaker bar, a flex head ratchet and a few more sk extensions. I figured it never hurt to have extra sockets.

Same pawn shop I picked up some swivel sockets, no real complete set but I paid $20 for these; 3 sk's, 3 snap on, 1 matco, and the extension is a mac.

Dunno what the story is on these air guns, but I picked the IR (marked cornwell) at a yardsale for $10. I paid $20 for the craftsman at a pawn shop.

I picked up some other assorted tools as well, just no pics of the rest. I'd say its been a good day.I was just excited..because usually i NEVER find anything good! I have never found this many tools in one day!
but I really am looking to find the details on that butterfly gun

Nice finds. Sorry, I couldn't figure out the butterfly impact either.

I picked up a cheap Snap-On 11/16 "standard length" combo wrench on Ebay for $2.00 plus $4.** shipping. Nice wrench, I think it is an older one.

The butterfly may be an Astro Pneumatic.

Good find on those S-Ks.

There are only a couple of pawn shops around here. One of them wants outrageous prices for everything, and I'm guessing they haven't actually sold anything in 20 years...

The other is very reasonably priced, but usually doesn't have much (probably because it has already sold). I have made a few good deals there.

Good buys there, congrats. Yea, the pawn shops here also want huge prices. Garage sales this weekend I picked up two snap on pickle forks and a medium sized two jaw puller for $15 on Friday and Saturday morning got a snap on ratcheting screwdriver in its plastic box with all the bits and a leatherman multi tool for $20.

I know the butterfly isn't a Astro Pnuematic, however it has to be pretty old, if it is who I think it is. I don't know how long it's been since they got out of the air TOOL business, but they now only sell compressors. I think it's a line that Quincy Air used to import and brand as their own.

Back to the butterfly, I thought I remembered that lower case "a" as being in the Astro logo. Perhaps they have a new logo, but their current butterfly looks identical:

That makes sense, as that would explain the big "Q".
