French Police M1920 Mauser Holster

<< < (2/2)

 I cannot say for sure who used this type of holster. The style does look very much like the reproduction holsters you can find on GunBroker.com with the exception that they have an embossed "US" on the flap and are described as American C96 holsters. Perhaps you could post a picture and the question on Jan Still’s luger forum? There are many knowledgeable C96 collectors there and one may have seen this holster and can provide better info on it.

Yesterday, I made up a simple but dimensionally correct wood model of a C/96 with the typical 5.5" barrel (I do not have a C/96).  I found that it fit properly in this holster.  So possibly the tag indicating that it was for the M1930 Mauser is correct. So far, I have received no further ID information from my postings in other forums.

A holster just like mine was just listed on eBay.  Unfortunately, all it said was WWII holster for broomhandle.  I contacted the seller for more details, and he knew nothing about it.
