    Nice. What pistol would have been in that big holster?
    "Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated

    My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

    Hi Michael,

    The holster is for a 9mm pistol.

    The Steyr M1912, also known as the Steyr-Hahn, is a semi-automatic pistol developed in 1911 by the Austrian firm Steyr Mannlicher, based on the mechanism of the Roth–Steyr M1907. It was developed for the Austro-Hungarian Army and adopted in 1912.It was the standard Austro-Hungarian military handgun of World War I.

    Here is the one that goes in the holster, it's dated 1916 with Vienna proof marks.

    Whilst conducting archaeology near Ypres a few years ago I found a cartridge case from a M1912, but better still from a fully automatic M1912 machine pistol. To compound the interest it was securely stratified in a 1916 deposit!

    The Bavarian Army bought a load of them from the Austrians for issue to their troops. I wonder if you were digging near a Bavarian unit stationed at Ypres ?
