RARE PAIR OF REICHSREVOLVER CONVERSION P08 HOLSTERS.

Two brown leather holsters, that were originally made for the Reichsrevolver, but were later converted for the P08 as a money saving measure where P.08s replaced Reichsrevolvers under the Army Instruction of April 1909. Closure straps with buckles on flaps, brass stud closures on mag & takedown tool pouches. One holster is marked “1.Fs.A.R” (cancelled) and “2.Fs.A.R.” (2nd Foot Artillery Regiment) inside flap. These are by far the rarest P.08 holster variation, very few indeed having survived WWI. PROVENANCE: Collection of Dr. Geoffrey Sturgess. CONDITION: Very good, with normal wear on sharp edges and corners, flaking and cracking on creases. Patina on brass. Marked holster is missing endcap at muzzle. Unmarked holster is missing pull strap. 43475-1079 BWS (2,000-3,000) – Lot 3629
