Hi Bill Nice rig. thanks for sharing. I like the box of bullets. Rare to find. Here is some pics of my 4UT 1935's. Great little pistols. Good design. I have had a few. The one I have kept is a late war parkerized blank slide 4UT, with this same grey-green holster. These green grey holsters are quite interesting and unique to these little pistols, but I have also seen bring backs with different small automatics in them. Seems these late war holsters were designed for a "universal usage as you may know. Worth mentioning for other members.

Regards, Steve

Hi RH, Good, glad you learned something. A lot think the same of these holsters because most are unmarked and the color throws people off. I have seen them waffenampt marked/accepted also in 2 different spots, usually on the leather piece under the strap. I think I might have seen one also that had a 3 letter Mfg. code, not sure though. PPk's and other small autos fit nicely in these little holsters.

Regards, Steve I wonder if Bill's has any markings?

Hey paddy, nice rig. Thats a nice M1934 Italian holster. Maybe a German officer dyed the holster black. That was pretty common in that theatre. I guess my pistols are 2nd and 3rd parkerized pistols you have seen then.
