We'll stick this holster up in here.



I like the keen-looking maker's mark on this one. The style of marking is said to have been used between 1890 and 1910. I feel sure the holster was produced expressly for the Colt Model 1903 .32/1908 .380 rather than the Remington Model 51, which was introduced in 1918 and produced until 1927, though Remington sold off inventory of these into the 1930s.

Still, the little Remington .380 automatic fits so perfectly that it makes for an appealing combination. Perhaps a proper Colt will come along one day.
