    French Postwar Holster

    Sarco is selling these currently for cheap if anyone wants one. Sold as Foreign Legion holsters, they are like new but the brass rivets came covered in green crap from long term storage.

    Figured I'd get the pistol to go with it but it seems Frenchicon postwar pistols are almost non-existent. Not even sure what would go in it.

    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 ...

    A 1935A would look snazzy in it.

    Devilishly good looking pistols!

    That one seems a good possibility and does seem to be available in limited numbers. The MAC Mle 1950 might be a better option but I'm not even sure if these are on the surplus market yet.

    I have one 1935A and have a Nazi marked one of the way from an auction. That one will be resold for a bit of a profit.

    I wouldn’t even call them uncommon, really. The ammo is harder to get than the pistol but Steinel is making the occasional run of it.
