Holster Origin

rpbcps · 11-29-2020, 08:54 AM

The seller let it go for £100, ($135), + Shipping.

As I have a 1916 dated 'double date' DWM in my collection which was later used by the police during the Weimar period, see photos in my album, I thought it would be a good match. So after a little negotiation, I purchased the holster.

Now, I am looking forward to seeing it 'in the flesh', so I can see if the letter / numeric codes on the rear of the holster are any clearer. I think it is marked "SW I 387’ and below that "SM 100", but I may have miss read or missed some digits or letters, TBC.

Here you see them 'in situ' in the 1970s.
