These wartime conversions can be collectible in their own right, with emphasis on "wartime". The 1st photo shows an original Type 1 Navy holster designed to be attached to a stock and shoulder strap, then a Type 1 converted for belt carry, called a "Type 1 Converted" by collectors, then finally a Type 2, designed to be worn on the belt when Naval Marines were deployed for ground combat in Flanders. The two pouches shown are a Type 1 worn on a shoulder strap and a Type 2 for belt carry.
The second photo shows a "Type 1 Converted", recently re-converted back to a Type 1, a definite minus in my opinion. Jerry Burney kindly offered to re-re-convert it back to a "Type 1 Converted" but I couldn't get my mind around the concept.
