Description
Before you lies a faithful replica of the hardshell holster made for the German P-38 pistol, a sidearm issued widely to Wehrmacht troops and other German forces throughout the Second World War. This holster is fashioned from thick, black-stained leather, carefully shaped and hardened to shield the pistol from knocks and the elements, while still allowing a swift and smooth draw. A spare magazine pouch is sewn onto the side, just as the original makers did, providing a secure place to carry an extra magazine close at hand. Original holsters like this have grown scarce over the years, as the leather and stitching often succumbed to wear and the harsh conditions faced on the battlefield. For those who study or reenact the period, this holster stands as a solid example of the practical design and rugged construction that German military gear favored.
Please note: ACC holds no sympathetic regard toward Nazis, fascists, or other neo-political parties, past or present. This product is intended for historical purposes only.
Fun fact: The P-38 holster’s rigid leather shell not only protected the pistol from dirt and moisture but also helped the weapon keep its shape when carried , a feature highly valued by soldiers facing the varied and often harsh climates of WWII.
