Wwii Patterns

[gunter]

Dear fellow crafters,

Someone asked me to me where to find the patterns for WWII army holsters, axis and allies. Is there anyone up here that has these patterns or might have the knowledge where to find them? We've been searching the net but no chance up to now.

Cheers,

Gunter

I haven't found any patterns myself.

I am on the lookout for a Steyr Hahn holster. An original is preferred, or make a reproduction. IMA sells repros, but I haven't seen the quality to judge it. Sometimes you can find a ratty original that could be a donor for a pattern.

What pistols are you looking to make holsters for?

Am looking for the patterns for a luger, P38 and Walther PPK. But the pattern for the colt 1911 is wanted by myself aswell.

All of those are being reproduced, so a pattern should be out there somewhere. My P-38 came with an original.

Have you checked with International Military Antiques (IMA), or SARCO? They sell repros. It may be worth buying one to take a part.
