question on holster

aldo35 · 09-25-2015, 03:49 PM

Were commercial artillery holsters made without marking? I have a very nice one and don't know if it repo or a commercial one. I would appreciate your comments.

Aldo,
I'm 98% sure that is a reproduction holster. Attachment block and belt loop are not right,
stitching on the flap is irregular- a sign of repro or poor repair.

I'm sure the experts will chime in.

Pakistani made reproduction. The quality of the tool pouch is always a dead give-a-way for me. Since it is hidden, reproducers never take the time to make it nice.
