Holster made for the S&W Victory which was a favorite of the Navy flyboys.
Mike Haas.....I have one exactly like it and the Victory U. S. Navy S & W .38 that goes with it.
I've been fortunate enough over the past years or so to add a couple of nice Victory's to my small collection, one of which is USNavy marked. Harder yet was finding a couple of nice shoulder holsters for them.
Couldn't help but post some pics. I do like my Victorys.
Outstanding John!
Thanks Harlan. Fortunately that old adage about the "blind squirrel" still plays out occasionally.
Have a very Merry Christmas!
It's a Postal issue, holster, Post Masters were required to carry guns on their persons. I have one exactly like it, only in better condition, I got it out of the basement of a 1928 Post Office and asked the Post Master about it. He said all Post Masters were issued and carried them.
