Hope I'm not stepping into it or on thin ice, but I thought I would share an area of my passion for guns that lead to a new hobby. Curly makes this kind of stuff in his garage.

I always wanted a 1911 stand to show off some of my collection, but everything I found were single stands. I wanted a two-banger, or three-banger. One thing lead to another, then this.

Dual 1911 Stand






Triple 1911 Stand





Eight Gun "Wheel of Weapons" 1911 Stand

Darn nice Curly! Have you thought of making up some for other pattern handguns? Say, like Glock, Browning HiPower, Makarov?

I have been asked to do that a couple times. It would be easy enough to do, but I would need a magazine for measurements and it would be best to get one in hand to take some critical angular dimensions.

If there was interest, I could get my hands on a Glock or three local to me. I would have to hit up a few local sites to get a Hi-Power for measurements. I could estimate the angular measurements from a photo most likely, but still would need a magazine.

I have also toyed around with making custom multi gun stands that mixed gun types - 1911's, Glocks, etc. It would take me a week or two to get time in the schedule, but I would love a challenge like that.

Get someone to donate a magazine in trade (partial or full) for a display stand!

I need to get a glock version! For picture purposes of course. But not sure about my magwells will affect it.

I've had a few requests to make a Glock version. I wish I owned a few, as I would have made these up already.

I hope to be heading to my local gun store to take a few measurements. Stay tuned, I am notoriously slow on incorporating new designs, but when I do, it's full steam ahead . . .

For glocks you could always pick up a cheap after market mag and sacrifice the body of it. Like a promag,korean, ets, magpul, etc...

Yep, that is a good idea as the Korean mags are very inexpensive right now. I believe them to be under $10.
By the way Curly, your work continues to look good!
