A really great "repro" rig ...Just another of your collection that makes other collectors weep with envy.

Bill,
Thanks for sharing this. I speak for myself, this is the closest to these treasures that I will hope to get. Nice family here. Now, Sir, how is that new Pup doing? |

Puppy is super active. One of us will survive until Spring! Actually a good dog just busy. Have had this G date for many years, just got the holster. Have looked for a 1935 holster for 45 years. Finally. Appreciate all your comments. Bill

45 years to find the holster? Man, that's tenacity! I'll be old and dead before I find a beauty rig like that. Happy for ya.

So how/where did you finally capture the holster? Did you have to crawl thru fire or was it sitting on your table one morning? Very nice set. dju |

On eBay with limited interest?? One other bidder. That doesn't happen to me often. Still $500 but still a good buy. When I first got interested in lugers couldn't afford the guns so bought holsters. They sold for $35 to $50 and lugers were $ 150-$200. Sounds cheap but my yearly salary was under $5000. Thanks for all your comments. Bill
