Brown Holsters

Nice holster Geo. I have heard that most issue holsters for the Army were black, and brown for the Luftwaffe. And officers for both services had to buy their own holsters, belts, sidearms. Many chose brown, based on color photos from the period.

I'm not really a luger holster expert by any means, but this one is definitely a shade of bergundy inside and out. Not a die job.

Strap stitches on this one need a little of Jerry's magic, but otherwise, pretty nice.
