Nice Finnish Holster for M/23

Lugerdoc · 10-13-2005, 08:43 AM

Luke, I suppose that it is possible that one of the Weimar commercial holsters for the 120mm barrelled M1900s and M1906s, somehow ended up in Finnish Army (SA) inventory. The standard issue for the M23 with 95 or 98mm 7.65 barrel was the one shown above with the stock straps, although you'll often find the strap cut off. There is a hard shell SA marked holster that appears on Pages 39 & 40 of Bender's "Military Holster of WW2" that will often be found containing a 120x9mm Finnish luger. TH
