    Help ID This Holster (U.S. I Think)

    This is obviously not a 1911 holster. I have never seen one like it but it is obviously "Mills". It resembles somewhat the Mills holsters used by the Navy and Marines for their .38 DA revolvers. Can anyone help ID it? THANKS .Attachment 41498Attachment 41499

    That's right, Mills revolver holster. Widely used.

    Is it marked Mills anywhere? Doesn't look like typical mills construction as Mills was noted for weaving their canvas goods in such a way that they required no sewing together.

    The bottom of the metal cup should have the Mills mark...
