Was making custom parts for the guns today and decided to "shoot" some, too.
This mini-1911 in .380ACP was made in Spain by Star and imported by InterArms in the mid-'90s.
Fits my hand really well and the ladies love it, too.

I wanted to try some different lighting ideas on this--not sure if I like the result or not.
Main flash is hitting a foamcore board in a 'ceiling' position 2ft up while another is gelled for color with a narrow spot grid to produce the red highlights and reflections.
wow a real gun!!! :|:|:|

The red on one side and green on the other makes me want to put on some 3d glasses, but I'm afraid that it'll pop out a shot Big Grin
I like very much the lighting in your picture Keith..
Here you would get about 6-years for that, but nice image with good light. Wink
