That is the problem; the best were German made Geco or H&K, in that order, which are difficult to  find now.

I do like the idea of the flare gun but have never seen one in a gun store...where might one find one for sale?

Tracker is right.  The high quality German flare guns are hard to find.  You can get on a waiting list for one at this site:

The same applies to this Polish-made licensed copy of the H&K 26.5 mm:

Less expensive pieces, such as the Orion line, can be found at major marine supply stores and on Amazon:

Brenden, my friend -- to paraphrase "Crocodile Dundee" . . . That's not bling.  This is bling:   8)

Marine stores.
I carried one on my boat, but it was plastic. I wouldn't fire rounds from those, but I did have it behind my back one time when I thought we were going to be boarded offshore. It turned out fine but at the moment, my anti-gun wife was below wishing she had an AR-15.
