Hello Tom,

LF member, James, has this holster for sale in the WTS section...along with a P-08 (non-Navy).

Saw that; would love to buy the holster but not interested in the pistol. As he is getting inquireies, I doubt he will split the rig.

What do you think about this one?

"REVSHOP" of Midwest is the only bidder at $200.00 (reserve not met) and he doesn't usually risk his funds on something that might be bogus... just my observation...

Hi Sid,

I would certainly ask the seller to send a few detailed photos before bidding...especially of the Navy marking and the WaA stamping.

Based on this seller being in Portsmouth. OH and selling lots of gun stuff, I would wager the seller is associated with the folks at FGS, Inc....an outfit with good solid reputations amongst most folks...

I do not know if the inside of the holster flap is typically dyed black or whether this may have been done by a subsequent owner. I would email one of our Navy folks before bidding...

Folks,

That holster is a mess.

First of all, the internal parts (Key pouch and AWOL cleaning rod strap) indicate it is NOT K-date. Secondly, some moron decided to improve it by dyeing the inside black. Thirdly, the bucket contour looks wrong; too square for a navy.

I'd buy it for $ 50 as a parts source to send to Jerry B. but that's about all.
