Pistol holster with strange stamp
This is suposed to be WW2 original pistol holster, but the stamps look kind of strange to me. The two big letters are non-cyrillic and the stampf with the year has a unusual writing.
Is it an original wartime piece? |

Re: Pistol holster with strange stamp
Do you know what weapon it was intended for?
That may help out on pinning it down. I must say it looks a hell of a lot like the RCMP and British worn holsters of the time.

Re: Pistol holster with strange stamp
It is for the TT33 and is original. Stamp is A-OK IMO also.
Perhaps the two Roman letters are someone's initials - a German's who took it as a trophy?

It could also have been worn in the GDR after the war. The new army and police in East Germany were firstly equipped with soviet weapons such as PPSh.
