Michel, I checked my diabetes museum, (closet), and surprised to find I still had my old Autojector. Will post a picture when I get a chance.

Box shows USI Ulster Scientific, Inc, New Paltz, NY, made in England. But appears USI sold or merged with Owens Mumford, maker of current autoject.

Btw, there is a post on tuD, with pic of what I think is much older than mine.

That Monoject pic was pretty cool. The thing looks huge!

This is so cool! You can totally see the new one is related to yours!

It’s like looking at hominid skeletons spaced a few 100,000 years 🙂

Yes, the current ones, as seen on Azm seem much more compact, and hopefully have a more gentle spring when releasing the loaded device. I do recall some bruising on some uses.
