As one of the companies connected to Raven Arms, and a maker of Saturday night specials, Sundance was described by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives as one of the "Ring of Fire companies", a series of companies established around Los Angeles, California, all of which manufactured inexpensive handguns of similar design and all of which were connected to Raven Arms.[3]
The majority of their production run involved modified versions of Raven Arms .25 ACP and Jennings Arms .22 LR pocket guns with a laser sight.[4] The guns were constructed of injection-molded Zamak, a zinc alloy.
Sundance went out of business in 2002.[5]
