WWI French contract 1907 pistol and holster set. The French contract pistols had a lanyard loop.

There were also Portuguese contract 1907's, they had grip panels made with the Portuguese crest in place of the indian head. It's my understanding that most of the grips with the crest were changed out for the indian head grips when they were brought back into the country. Anyway, the Portuguese crest grips are very rare, and it is possible to mistake a Portuguese contract for a French contract. The only way to know for sure is the serial # range.

A couple of different models of Audley Folsom holsters made for the Savages. They a pretty hard to come up with too!

Thanks again everyone.
