A reader on our Facebook page posted these photos and it stopped me in my tracks. Just look at this! We truly live in a golden age for recreational shooters. It used to be that most people wouldn’t put the time, or the money, into making a modern style holster for a WWII service pistol. And if you did, it was some custom tooled leather thing.
Not very practical by today’s modern pistol technique standards.
But with the proliferation of custom Kydex shops in just about every town, you really don’t have those excuses any longer. And that is a good thing! As a shooter, I am all about the experience. And custom Kydex holsters make it very easy for the home-gamer to play “what if”.
Maybe pop’s pistols can come out of semi-retirement? Hell! Some of you might be surprised at how, “not bad”, many of these old-timer guns are.
Special thanks to Chuck M. for sharing his pictures.
