Description:
The 1911 mounted on the stock is a pellet gun, just for mockup.
During the 1920s and 30s the Monarch Arms & Mfg Sales Company, based in Los Angeles, produced a range of detachable stocks for pistols including the Colt 1911 and Colt Woodsman. This followed in the footsteps of numerous other detachable pistol stock designs which provided more stability and better accuracy.
Monarch Arms appears to have marketed these stocks under various names including ‘Steady Fire’ and the ‘Rifle-ette’, Monarch Arms also sold a kit including a stock and extended magazine known as the ‘Multi-Shot Riot & Anti-Bandit’(see images #1 - #3). In the photographs above a Colt Government Model has been outfitted with a Multi-Shot extended magazine and a Rifle-ette shoulder stock. Apparently developed by a Los Angeles police officer they could be fitted to a variety of Colt pistol models, including Government models in .45 ACP and .38 Super, to create a light pistol carbine.
To minimise weight Monarch Arms made their stocks from cast aluminium with a crackle paint finish. The multi-shot extended magazine grip, which held 18 or 22 rounds, was also made from cast aluminium. To attach the stock the left hand grip panels was replaced with one provided by Monarch which had additional holes for two thumb screws to allow the stock to be attached quickly. This was set up for right-handed shooters, it is unclear if Monarch offered a left-handed version of the stock.
