Default Marine slip holster Karma

Members,

Here is a Karma that will interest US Marines or maybe you know of one that will appreciate this.
It's hand made for right hand draw, and has the Challenger coin stitched on to the leather. All is done by me. The slip holster will fit a 1.5 to 1.75 belt.

The winner will agree to donate $ 40.00 to the USO.

Say you are IN, and I will draw the winner on may 3 after 8pm pacific time.
I dont have a donate link, so I will take your word that it was made.

Thank you,

Henry

What does the holster fit? A 1911? What width belt will it fit on?

With your approval, I'll enter for my 86 YO father, He is a Marine going back to 1948. He lied about his age when he enlisted in 1948. He still carries his USMC ID card and wears one of his original dog tags around his neck every day.


Here he is while stationed at Chalmette NAS in 1949 with VMF-143, The Ragin Cajins.

My 5 year old nephew picked your name, so you are the winner. Info to follow.

Thank you to all who put their name in the hat. I know the USO will appreciate the help.

Thank you,

Henry

Sounds great! Thank you!
I've just done a $50 donation to the USO (they hound me weekly, so now I'll never hear the end of it). When they had troops returning for R&R through my airport, we would go out with bags toiletries they needed after having stuff taken in security. They never lose your phone number once you volunteer.

I'll PM back my address.

Thanks again!

A very nice Karma. Thank you for doing this. USO is worthy of our help. I send what I can and they send me a 3'X5' U.S. flag every year. New one arrives as the old one begins to look tattered a bit.

Helping in small amounts really adds up to a lot. That's why I do it.

The holster has arrived. Looks Good.
Since it didn't happen without pics, I'll let others judge.

Shown with my Remington Rand 1943 mfg service pistol, and a Colt 1972 Mark IV Gov't series 9mm. Either of which my nephew can have to go with it if he ever comes home again ...

And the USO cleared my CC account already.

(Sorry, pics reversed - Colt to the left)

Outstanding. Good to know it arrived safe and sound. The guns look good like that, and I sure wish we had open carry here in CA.
Thank you for posting the pictures.
