What Manufacturer Made The Finest Holster

cirelaw · 07-05-2010, 07:54 PM

I was thinking about Jerry Burney, A true Gentleman and Master Craftsman and was wondering who made the finest holsters and if there were written standards that governed the quality. Which ones are the most valuable??

AKAH was the top leather maker in Germany who mainly made leather for the commercial market (early 1900's through WWII) and for the NSDAP during WWII.

Was there a holster manufacturer considered the 'Louis Vutton' of leather holsters?

You mean a holster you could carry your chrome-plated ivory handled engraved Luger in???

In this month's issue of American Rifleman there was a picture of one of Bianchi's western rigs...made for an M1911...Surely he could do a Luger...
