I think I know a little bit and hope the info is correct. If not, turnerriver will set me straight. 
Moose Brand holster made by Brauer Brothers. I have one that is probably older than yours, since it has the Patent information on the strap, it is possibly pre war. Mine also has the brass snaps on the safety strap that have "Brauer Bros MFG Co St Louis" on them. The 1928 US patent number for this style holster is 1696708, and is for the snap loop design which allows for the easy removal of the holster without taking off your belt.
Here is a picture on my .25 holster that I think is like yours:

Isn't a handgun but a very nice 1912 Chilean mauser in 7x57 caliber. I have mausers in 6.5x55 Swedish, 8mm, 7.65x53 argentine and now a 7x57. Frank

Just went on a buying binge. Straight trigger blade for Kidd two stage trigger for custom 10/22, Ahrends Tactical grips for S&W 65, Deadringer Snake Eyes sights for Glock 19 and mag loader for the 19. But to keep the economy stimulated my "wants list" has grown!

Very early Charter Arms Bulldog 44 special.
Not very pretty, but very tight, light, & 5 rounds of 44 cal goodness in a very concealable package

The Steyr is the first handgun I really wanted. Never got one. Totally don't need one. Still want one. I saw one at the first Tanner Gun Show I went to. I thought it looked amazing, felt really good in my hand. I like the sights too.
Congratulations on your acquisition!

A Martini-Henry from the Nepalese Palace cache. It will by a wall hanger as I would not trust it with live ammo.

Because I had a GSSF coupon that was expiring, another Glock 19 Gen4 Blue Label. It's my backup to my primary carry Glock 19, "one is none, two is one" philosophy.
All that was left at the only Glock Blue Label program dealer was one equipped with Glock factory night sights. It's a three dot. I wanted a standard Glock polymer dot-and-bucket sight because it was less expensive and I'd have an excuse to try a different sight setup.

Loot From the Gun Show.
Returned home with some loot from last weekend's NMGCA gun show in Albuquerque. Got a few knives, including a S&W marked H.R.T. It comes with a sheath and a chain, apparently so it can be worn, upside down, around the neck. The sheath has a pouch for something, too thin for a sharpening stone. Anyone know anything about these; like what H.R.T stands for or what's supposed to go in that container on the sheath? Also got a few SAKs and a pretty Laguiole marked La Colombe, which means 'The Dove'. Never saw one marked like that before.

More Loot
Also got a few collector's cartridges: two clips of 8X56R for my 1904 Bulgarian contracrt Steyr M 95. The brass is stamped 1938 while the blackened steel is stamped 1944. Apparently someone (Hungary, Bulgaria?) used these rifles in World War II. The other cartridges are 280 Ross, to go along with the box of original Ross Rifle Company cartridges I'll show with my beautiful M 10 Ross.
The real piece of loot didnt' come out of the gun show but from Ron Peterson's wonderful shop. Read my post "Not a Grail Gun"

Acquired a Gen.4 G27 in a trade, two years old, less than 50 rounds through it, and never carried. Added grip plug, extended slide lock lever, Pearce +0 Gen.4 mag extension, and Ameriglo Pro-I dot sights, orange front. Waiting on an OEM G17 trigger to replace the serrated one on the gun.
My new EDC.

I have a 1899 Marti Enfield that was converted to 303 back at the mothership. Wood is a little dinged up but the metal is exceptionally good for its age and the barrel is mint. It must have been re arsenalled and stored away prior to export to the USA. After that whomever had it must not have shot it or shot very little.

My last gun purchase which is my only one so far this year is a 66-2 which was manufactured in 1984.
Also a new DeSantis thumb break scabbard for it.

I think they compliment the gun.

Cabela's has their rebranded Plano 50 cal ammo boxes on sale for 7.99 right now. So I bought ten of them, and an Uplula magazine loader for the wife to use with her Shield.

I stopped by my favorite small LGS the other day because they frequently have some older Smiths that are not priced sky-high. There was nothing new in the handgun case but the wife of the owner says “show him that old .22 rifle that just came in". The owner brings out very presentable Winchester Model 52B SPORTER! It was missing the staff out of the receiver sight, it had a 1940s vintage Weaver 4X professionally mounted and a Lyman 17 front sight installed. It also was equipped with a very stiff M1907 shooting sling attached with the correct Winchester swivels. After some dickering I brought the Model 52B took it home to clean it up and found that it’s serial number was about 550 away from 52B target rifle! I took the Lyman 48 rear sight staff out of another rifle so the slot wouldn’t be empty for the photos.

I got a new 3rd Gen Glock 33. I really like the .357 Sig cartridge and with some judicious tweaks, these subcompacts are a great choice for the summertime...

1964 Vintage Colt Government Model .45ACP frame
I have been looking for a dedicated Colt Government Model .45ACP frame for my early post war Colt .22 Conversion Unit for quite a long time. I wanted a post war frame in around the same general date range as my Conversion Unit. I spotted this for sale on a forum and the price was right so it was a no brainer although the date range is a little off. I bought the pistol for the frame. The frame dates to 1964. The upper is a Series 70 with a Series 70 barrel with attached compensator. Fortunately the frame hasn't been messed with and is in very nice original condition other than the aftermarket parts. I had all the missing OEM parts for the frame in my parts bin. The upper is kind of crude, been refinished and I'm not quite sure what I'm going to do with it.
Here it is when I received it:
This is it now. I'm still on the hunt for period correct 60's era plastic grips and polished grip screws, but it will do for now.

Just bought a GSG 1911-22, 22 Cal built like a tank, ran 300 rds thru it last weekend at steel targets, ran great and fun to shoot. Can't beat it for $240 bucks
