Odd German/Swiss...
Very interesting German 1918 holster that was probably modified in the Swiss style with shoulder strap added and existing (or new...) belt loops re-inforced with rivots. BAX marked as well.
If you click on the photo gallery link in the ad there are 36 photos total to look at. http://www.sim-mi.de/ Looks like the holster will still only hold a luger with a 4" barrel...so I will not bid...I promise...since my Swiss guns are 4-3/4" in barrel length. http://www.egun.de/market/item.php?id=1052869 (Text Added 9-15-06 : Looks like the auction ad states no international shipping...) |
