US WW2 Leather 1911 Belt Holster [8FIELDS]

Real nice holster. The quality is amazing and it super comfortabel to wear! Its a bit tricky to get it on the belt, but after watching some videos i got it on. If you are looking for a ww2 loadout its defenetly worth it to consider this holster!

For the first look it looks good and made from quality leather. But for the second try I had to realize that my M1911 doesn't fit into it properly. Furthermore it was very hard to open and then close it because the pin and the leather were very tight. I know I ordered the right handed version, but I wish there would be a left handed one, too.

Well, I was a bit disappointed at first. It's made out of not very thick leather (but thick enough so it holds it's shape when it's wet formed). On the back it has a wire M10 hanger and a belt loop (if you want to carry it on the pants). However, the leather flap that holds the hanger and the belt loop is not stiched all the way around ( I don't know if that is the original design or a manufacturing defect... but it works fine). The main flap is closed on a metal stud - the slot on the flap myte get elongated over time (we shal see). The main problem/issue I had with the holster was the main stiching line. When the pistol is inserted into the holster the line of stiches is not in line with the pistol - it's very offset and it looks... wrong. Again; I don't know if the original holster was made the same way but it's not pritty. Luckaly, you can fix that by wet forming the holster to the specific pistol (google it). So, 3 stars

I have ordered this 1911 holster for my World War II paratrooper set. When I opened the box the smell of the real leather insantly hit my nose. Looks good, feels good, but the color is slightly a lighter tone than the original holsters of the era. That's okay.

Of course they fit perfectly on WW2 U. S. M36 pistol belt.
