There is a whole bunch of variation in Bulgarian holsters. The holster posted by rolandtg is better constructed than most.

Mine came out of Bulgaria about ten years ago and appeared unissued after long storage although I suspect it's probably post war maybe late 40's or 50's but that's just a guess.

My impression was that Bulgarian holsters are relatively plentiful and inexpensive. Is this actually true?

I bought one at auction online, and it's configured like the one above with straight stitching. Unfortunately, the muzzle of the gun it held wore a slight hole in the face of the toe. Worse yet, I based my $40 bid on a single pic, of the front only. Its belt loops have been removed and some clever technician has sliced through the back and created two vertical slits for a belt!
