Neighbor’s Erfurt Holster
5 Attachment(s)
This is the holster that belongs to the 1914 Erfurt pistol that belongs to my neighbor. It is posted (or will be) in another section. I am not an expert, but this one may be unusual because on the tool pouch. It features a leather knot rather than the normal stud. Is that normal for 1914? His grandfather brought it from WWII. Thanks

The stiching on the cover flap is also different from the ones I have. Mine have no stiches.

To me this could be a commercial holster and not military. Bill

The workmanship and leather doesn't look like a German holster at all.
The luger is very nice though(picts in other thread). |
Any markings on the inside lid?
Any markings on the rear? My gut feeling is that the top was replaced at one time. |
I agree with Ed, as i've only seen this type top cover on some reworked Walther M6 holsters. TH

The color of the leather and the thread looks very uniform throughout the holster. I'd bet if it was a rework, it was probably redied. Thanks for the information. Is that leather knot on the cover of the tool pouch typical?

I don't think it is a "rework" but just a holster made by someone other than a German saddler. JMHO. |
Thanks guys for the opinions. You're not offending me since it is not mine. Now that you mention it, it is quite different.
