Looks very odd to me. Anybody know what it is?

Dave,

It's a Belgian Military Hi-Power holster.

"The old holster is still in good shape for its age,"

It's dated 1961 fer crying out loud... The seller must be a puppy!!!

Ron, he might be looking at the numbers upside down.

It might actually be dated 1961

davidkachel · 09-27-2007, 12:09 PM

No, I think that date is 1961!

Ron Smith · 09-27-2007, 09:43 PM

Yup! I'm almost certain that it's 1961....

davidkachel · 09-27-2007, 09:46 PM

Well then, it's 1961... I suppose.

Edward Tinker · 09-27-2007, 09:55 PM

David, I don't think so, I lightened and turned it around and I think its a 1961????

davidkachel · 09-27-2007, 10:00 PM

By George Ed, you're right!!! It IS a 1961 after all.

I just want to add, that enough cannot be said for the expertise and knowledge found on this forum. I have been a member here for awhile, and just wanted to say that I am in awe.

Simply an outstanding and insightful bit of research using our combined knowledge in the field of collecting.

Now I need a nap....

Dream well Ron. We'll wake you in 1961!
