Default Heiser for Artillery Luger

Just like the many holsters that Heiser made for Colt and S&W, Heiser also made many different models for the Luger pistol. Commercial model Luger pistols started showing up over here in the early 1900's, the captured military variety after WW1, more Commercial models between the wars and more captured military after WW2. Heiser saw the need and produced many different types. This one I think was probably made in the 20's to 30's. Pictured with 1917 DWM Artillery. The sun, clouds and shade were not cooperating yesterday when I took these.

I bet one would definitely attract attention toting that around on your hip in TX in the early 1900’s. Beautiful gun and holster!

I need one of those floral carved Artillery holsters for my next BBQ. Since it changed hands 75 years ago the only holster the poor thing has seen is a USGI shoulder holster.

Nice Heiser and Luger! Be sure and get rid of that green verdigris before it causes permanent damage.

It has been removed, did so after I took the pics. Verdigris is some nasty stuff.
