P38 Holster Opinions 1942

[nbushyager]

I have a very nice AC42 P38 that I picked up a while ago and I am looking to find a matching holster. The one pictured is said to be marked fsx42 FSX42 WaA445. It's kind of hard to tell from the pictures, but any insight into this piece would be great. It there a more accurate holster for my AC42 that I should wait for? I just want to ensure its the correct year, military issue and overall excellent condition.

Looks like it is still nice an supple. I'm sure you know, but I would recommend not storing the pistol in the holster.

I believe that this holster would be appropriate for your pistol. Here is a couple pictures of the one I purchased recently. Bob

Wow I really like the patina on the leather of your holster. Makes me wonder about waiting for for one more like yours.

I did look at quite a few before purchasing this one. Best of luck with your search. Bob

I would not worry overly about the patina on the holster. That one would polish up Very nicely. It just looks dull from time and dirt, but abit of elbow grease would bring him back up to shine just fine.

Is there a certain type of conditioner you guys have seen that work well on this old leather? Thanks for everyone's input
