TEST holster on Gunbroker
There is a TEST holster now listed on Gunbroker. Sorry I do not have the item number or link. Can I get a opinion if this is a real test holster?
Thank you, Bill |

Rougher condition than mine, but it looks authentic in my opinion:
- Fasteners on rear correctly align below bottom of flap - Stitching looks right - Leather on inside looks correct - these holsters were made of a soft russet leather The EHS stamp looks like the correct font, spacing and placement. However, I cannot read the Rock Island Arsenal above it clearly because of the cracking on that area. It is there though. I learned some tips from Ron Wood and am grateful for him examining mine prior to my purchase... Listing ended. He has had it listed several times. I corresponded with him during his original listing and asked some questions. He was very pleasant and seemed to know his stuff. http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=243066935 http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=227102217 http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=227102217 These are rare in any condition.

Thank you,
GB will not let you email the seller on a closed auction, unless you won! Seeing I cannot connect with him, I hope he will relist it at some point. |

See if the seller has other listings. If so, then contact him thru those listings.
