    Carbine Holster on E-Bay

    Seems a bit excessive to me.
    WWII M1 carbine leg HOLSTER fits the full stocked carbine 1943 WW2 US ARMY | eBay

    Not sure that I have seen pix of these in use by paratroopers for Normandy, but perhaps?
    The "rigger made" thigh strap seems simply like a belt.......

    Thoughts?

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Lineman's holster....was made for the guys who had to climb poles to string telephone wire. Very few were actually issued. Many made, but few issued.
    When they tell you to behave, they always forget to specify whether to behave well or badly!

    Been seeing these periodically for years, but never with the "rigger" modifications (?!) or the story that they were popular in the Normandy jump................

    The most I have seen one go for was about $250 to $300................
