Carbine Holster on E-Bay

[Dave-In-Maine]

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?

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.

Sold “Buy it Now” $545.00. Must have been a have to have item for someone or they bought the description.

Cool....I've been looking for a way to conceal carry my Carbine.

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................

About three time what it's value really should be.
