    Default Pistol Holster, German? WW2?

    Hi Guys,

    I was wondering if anybody had any ideas about this holster?

    It has no markings!

    Thanks in advance.

    Regards

    Is it a smaller size holster or something a little larger like what a polish random would fit in?

    Cheers Bill,

    I suppose without markings it is impossible to tell?

    Once I've found the same holster in the Estonian attic, the holster was with attached mag to the pocket, and the holster itself has a fresh traces from a gun, someone found the hidden in attic holster w gun, and throw away the holster. At first look to the mag and traces I thought that it was a VIS-35, they was found by me a couple of time.

    Thanks Guys,

    It came from a house clearance as did the rifle last week. It is from an old boy who has moved into a home. His son said he had weapons in his gun safe but did not show me as he didn't have the keys. I wonder if the pistol is there? I will keep you informed.

    Regards
