"Style, substance, and the spirit of the 1911— the reason it will never goes out of fashion."
Episode Summary
In this episode of The Gun Experiment, we sit down with Eli Duckworth—a marketing powerhouse, 1911 enthusiast, and a man with iconic style. Together, they dive deep into Eli’s fascination with classic firearms, especially the 1911, and how he’s channeled his passion into a successful career with Alchemy Custom Weaponry. The conversation flows from Eli's unique Gen Z approach to vintage style, his unlikely journey from a non-gun household into the firearms industry, and his growing influence within gun culture on Instagram.
We take a deep dive into the crucial role of American history in gun ownership, the legendary legacy of the 1911 pistol, and why classic style (in guns, clothing, cars, and accessories) will always stand the test of time. Listeners get a behind-the-scenes look at Eli’s relationship with the legendary Ken Hackathorn, hear stories of historic firearms, the art of collectible watches, and the meaning of true customer service in the high-end firearms market. This episode is a celebration of American gun culture, enduring style, and the people who keep its traditions alive.
