Picture
I think I have attached a picture from a book of the 1950's of one just like my Dad brought back. It is quite similar if I can remember from 1955 or thereabouts.
I surely do appreciates the insights. Many thanks Jack:

another try
I will try a different angle on the picture project.
I stated that it has some appearances of perhaps being a proto-type. The ideas and concepts seem to be great and the fit of the gun and the way it closes and tightly fits and all seem very well done. The felt is applied nicely and could be 95 years old - I don't know. The way the compartments are done and the tool for cleaning the barrel appear to be good enough. Many more thanks Last edited by CAP Black; 12-27-2010 at 04:33 PM. |

more info
The dimensions are: 15.5 inches long; 4 3/4 inches wide at the lid end; 2 inches thick at the lid end; and 1 5/8 inches at the mid-section.
One observation was that with no belt loop or belt hooks it would need a harness strap arrangment to carry it. Yes, and those straps would have had leather pouches attached for holding the magazines. thanks again, fellas Jack

Cleaning tool
Attached ( I hope) are pictures of the top part of the barrel cleaning tool contained in one slot in the holster. Can anybody shed any light on this tool. Good, bad or ugly?
