Lucked Out (Long)

For some inexplicable reason, only 1935 military luger holsters are Dresden Heinchens. The police 1935's are as common as other police holsters but the militaries are as rare as it gets from 1934 - 1942. All the original Dresden 35s I have seen were originally brown but may later have been dyed black. Is yours dyed or original black with the white stitching? There are two ways to repair the pull strap. One is to replace the whole strap and the other is to skive the orig strap and adhere a replacement section with the ball end. Both methods take some real skill and it helps if you are also a ship or scale modeler as you should have the tools and skill. If the lid was restitched in the original holes you are in luck. Have it restitched by a professional like Jerry. Especially, Jerry. In fact, have Jerry do it.


Congratulations.
