FOR SALE Revolver Loading Stand

[Barry Strickland]

I made this for my revolvers. It is very helpful especially when competing in NMLRA limited timed fire matches.
The articulated funnel system is made for use with many different frame size revolvers. It makes it very easy
to dump in the powder charge and then the corn meal without spilling anything. The groove in the base
will hold 13 of the .457 balls when shooting the International target.
I am selling off all my pistol and revolver items because of old age and physical problems.
There will eventually be many molds and other items listed.
Here are a few pictures one of an Ruger Old Army on the stand and also a small frame
5 shot Police revolver to give you an idea of how it works.
My price is $40 delivered cont. USA.

If you ever make one for a flint pistol w/8” barrel, I would be interested

William,
Just a work of advise on a pistol stand. I have made a few over the years and there can be a problem if they are not built right.
Pistols require more support than revolvers. A pistol has no reinforcement on the handle to absorb the impact of driving a
tight ball down the bore.
The grip are has the grain of the wood running right across at the wrong angle and is very weak in that area. I have seen too many
pistols broken in that area from lack of support.
The proper way to do that is actually make a wood support that follows the arc of the pistol grip. The piece of wood extends up
from the base of the stand to the tang of the barrel. It should be lined with leather and will be a tremendous reinforcement
to that area of the grip.
I usually work from a slab of wood when making pistols and have a suitable cut piece when sawing out the blank.
If you have someone build you a stand you need to hand over the pistol to them so they can make a properly profiled piece of wood.
Good luck
Barry

Thanks for the advice. If I sent you some very good pics of the pistol, would you be interested in building me one?

If you decide you want to do it, could you give me a price quote? Thanks

Oh, sure Bill,
Like I said, the pistol really needs to be in hand so correct curves and angles can be made to the stand.
Just send it to me and I will build you one. Of course I have some projects ahead of me that are in line first.
You won't mind if I keep it for a year or two while I build the stand will you?
Of course while in my possession I will take it to the range and check out the accuracy, trigger pull & etc.
Just to be sure there is nothing that needs tweaking. : )
Very nice pistol, by the way!

Oh, sure Bar,
What a great idea! Now why didn’t I think of that?
