Default 5 for $20? Old school Holsters

About a month ago I was in my local Range/Gun shop. They had a couple of discount boxes marked $20 and $15. After digging through both boxes of misc. holsters, Ruger rings, glock mag bases and a few other items, I found a nice left handed Bucheimer Clark 1911 holster for $15.




Today while at the shop, there was only one large box that said "$5.00 box". I pulled out the remaining 5 holsters and took them to the counter. When I got there, I asked if they'd do 5 for $20? They did. Below is the 5 I got. I'll probably only keep the one for the .38 break top. The rest will end-up in the market place.

The best I could tell, is one fits my H&R break top copy, a lefty shoulder holster for 5900 series S&W, the Hoyt fits a S&W model 1917, and two Bianchi inside the waistband holsters (small revolver and small Beretta auto).
Any info. on value or history would be greatly appreciated.

Good score. Those Bianchi #3 holsters don't seem to get much love but they're a good holster. A 3" J-frame should fit the one fine and the other looks to be sized for a Beretta 84.

I like that little carved one a lot. That one alone makes the $20 well spent, in my opinion.

That's a great deal!

I always try to look in the used holster/magazine bin at LGS, have found some good deals that way.

I'd be interested in that IWB holster for the J-frame when you find out how much you want to sell it for, please let me know.

Thanks.

That's a neat old Hoyt crossdraw. I have two similar to it, but with narrower straps instead of the flap.

I was hoping you were going to say the Hoyt was for sale!

$5 for a Hoyt! You got a steal. Those holsters are highly sought after and sell for almost 10 times that on the used market.

Well done Sir! You are a man after my own heart, the used holster box is the first thing I check out at a shop that has them.
