Default Bucheimer holsters - any good?

I ask because I just came across a place that has dozens new old stock still in the box holsters.
With probably the original prices.

Bucheimer brand (and associated Bucheimer Clark products) were of generally good quality, made in the USA about 1960's to 1980's.

Bucheimer was also one of the military contractors for US M1916 holsters, and I think they also did some of the M7 shoulder holsters and revolver holsters for military contracts in the 1960's to 1970's.

i've got six or seven bucheimer concealer models, two of which i have had and used since the mid 70s and i love them. to me, they are one of the best holsters for concealment ever made. they hold the guns in tight to the body. lee

I've used several over the years, and they worked just fine. Today, I think of them as neat "old school" designs. If the holsters you have located at selling at a good price go ahead and pick up several.

Not top shelf collector stuff, but good serviceable holsters. If I could buy some new old stock ones at attractive prices, I'd probably buy several.
