    Makarov holster question

    Unfamiliar with Makarov holsters (and most things Russianicon), but I am curious....this strap...what is it for? The pistol looks to fit deep (and snugly) in this holster. Is this strap used to "draw" the weapon? lift it high enough out of the flapped holster that you can then grab the grip with your hand?


    Is it that simple?
    Thanks.
    Mike

    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.

    Yes, lift it so you don't have to dig in with fingertips or more like...gloves.
