I was told that I needed a stand to compete in the match. apparently not allowed to keep a pistol holstered on the firing line. It must be in a stand? in IPSC its in your shooting bag untill you get to the firing line. you take it out of the bag and show clear. instant DQ if you fail this test. then load and holster. pistol is considered safe as long as it is holstered in an approved holster.

Very nice. I made two stands from an article in Muzzle Blasts, I think it was. Very simple with scrap wood, finished nicely they look fine. One for a perc. and other for a flint 1803 replica. Thanks.

Stand for the Trapper.
I started shooting in pistol competition with NMLRA at Friendship in 1972. Over the years I have made quite a few loading stands of different
kinds.
The latest is a shooting box that I can use for all my pistols by just changing the base that supports the pistol. It is large enough to contain all my
accessories and everything I need for repair of or adjustment of my equipment.
I tried to make as light as possible and still be strong. The frame is walnut and the panels are 1/8" birch plywood.
I have been very happy with it.

What brand of powder measure is that?
Looks to be some variant of an "underhammer".
This is Pedersoli's current variant, which doesn't quite match the one in the picture, so not really an answer to your question, but close enough for a guess:

That is a 45 cal P. Bondini underhammer pistol.
I had to change the front sight. It was so low from a previous owner that it was shooting to high for me. It shoots very nice, very accurate.
hey friend thank you so much for sharing this information.that is a beautiful pistol.thank you also for taking the time to answer my question

I'm going to build a loading stand for my Harpers Ferrry pistol, very soon. I didn't need one for my .45 Parker-Hale pistol, but the huge Harpers Ferry pistol is much harder, more awkward for me to load. I'm going to make something like this folding design, much more convenient to take to the range.

Oh, man, another doable winter project even for a total clutz -- meinzelf of course!
