Original artwork description:

When you grew up with the fear of a nuclear bomb hitting your town, they told you that radiation would make you glow. This gun made me think that I would look exactly like this, something that glows in the dark and everyone would be afraid of you and your gun. I was a kid, and a lot of things did not make sense then, but in my fantasy world, it was exciting summer fun.
