I picked up two tripods and I'm TRYING to get them listed. I see pics of both Browning 1928 and Colt 1917s using this tripod. Will it fit both?



Here is the second tripod I have going up today....

I think I've got them both ready to start.....if any of you know something about these and could check my listings out I would REALLY appreciate it.

  Kasey, I'm no expert on these things, but I did a little quick research and it appears that the Browning 1917 and the Colt 1928 are basically the same gun. The Colt 1928 added a thumb safety, a Type A flash hider, and mount for a panoramic front sight (whatever that is!).
  Here's the Wickipedia link;

  Go down to section 4.3, Commercial Variants. that's where the 1928 Colt is shown.

  Thank you!
  
  I thought that was what I was seeing, but I figured I better ask to see if someone knew more than what I was finding. When you don't deal with things like this the info can be like reading another language.
