Not For 8" Luger...

Pete Ebbink · 06-24-2007, 11:07 AM

Although the HH Heiser holster # 535 can be for an 8" Luger, this one on eBay is not quite the right size for a Luger.

To the credit of the seller, he does not indicate so...

I have a very nice basket-weave, closed toe, full flap HH Heiser # 535 holster in my collection for an 8" Luger.

Its dimensions are a bit larger than the sizes listed by the eBay seller. Mine is 6-1/2" by 13-1/4".

Mauro,

I thought of you specifically when I saw this holster offering this week on eBay. Thought it might be a "sister" of my holster that you could win.

But I emailed the seller and asked him to take careful measurements of the holster again...just to make sure he did not take careless measurements when he placed his auction ad.

I think it might fit a Colt Woodsman type pistol...too small for an 8" Luger...

If it were the right size, I would have sent you a PM...as I know you are looking for nice LP-08 leather.

Text Added : eBay seller got back to me. His dimensions in his ad are the actual size and he concurred it is a holster for a Colt pistol.
