This was discussed in another forum that I belong to a couple of months ago.

I have summarized soem of the discussion points:

Shortly after the Colt Woodsman had reached the apex of its popularity in the mid-1920, a small holster making outfit out of California offered up a unique, well-made steel and leather holster which could quickly be slipped off the wearer's belt and attached solidly to the butt of the Colt it was carrying moments earlier.

The owner now had what was effectively a short barreled carbine. Once the shooter was done, they slipped the gun out of its stock, hooked the big steel loop on the back over their belt, and holstered the Colt.

The logo shows N-S, for Neal Schaefer of Ventura, California, and says it was patented 1925.

..metal holder around the butt is a strong clamp and tightly fitted so there's no movement of the gun inside it. Yes, it's specifically for the first generation. I tried it on all my various single shot pistols and the only one it fit was the Fiala. Here's pic of a Fiala wearing it.


Was this off of GB, 153292357?
