Thanks for the input on my holster rig purchase.

I got the pistol from my father. It is a WWII bringback captured in Belgium sometime during the course of the Battle of the Bulge. When brought back it originally had the holster and extra magazine it was captured with, but when I was a child my much older sister took the holster with the extra mag to use as a prop in a high school play and it was never returned. I thought to put the pisol back with a full rig and in addition to the holster, belt, buckle and tool I also seperately purchased a matching mag to the one already with the pistol. The original mag is blued with an aluminum base and is marked FXO with an eagle over the number 37. The aluminum base is serial numbered. The magazine I purchased is identical and similarly marked except the serial number is different and has a plus symbol with it. I paid $250 for the holster, belt, buckle and tool. I paid $60 for the magazine.

Regards,
