Listing for sale a nice, honest and original holster for the 1917 Colt New Service or S&W hand ejector revolver in .45 acp. I would rather sell to a fellow Forum member than through Feebay you have all the hassles of fees, sales taxes, and that other "Big Brother" stuff, etc. No taxes, fees here!

The holster is in solid shape, showing normal wear and tear for being 108 years old. I believe this was made in 1917 (date stamp is a little soft). Leather is still very supple and stitching is solid with only some minor wear. I think the photos show the condition pretty well. This holster will definately accept a revolver with no issues. The only downside is that at some point, a prior owner put some reinforcement on the flap knob. I don't know if it had come fully loose or was heading in that direction. It may come off but I havn't messed with it - but what you see is what you get.
I took several photos as a picture is worth a 1,000 words. If you still have any questions or need additional photos, don't hesitate to ask. I am trying to avoid surprises and disappointments. My goal is to have a smooth transaction and happy customer, so would prefer that you understand what you are getting up front. A nice solid, honest WWI holster which is fully functional and would make for a nice display piece.
A holster in this condition without the addition of the leather around the flap knob would be selling for $100+ , but I am asking $70 shipped (and remember NO sales tax or fees here folks!) - shipped anywhere in the lower 48.
I will offer a 3 day inspection but the item has to be returned in the same condition as received. Refund will be for the purchase price less outbound shipping. If you mess with it, its yours. Return shipping is on you. My goal would be to have a happy buyer so please ask all questions beforehand to avoid any surprises/disappointments. Please let me know if you have any questions or need additional info/photos.
I can take a credit card payment (add 4% to the total), direct discreet payment through PP Friends and Family, MO/certified funds (all ship immediately) or a personal/business check (must clear before shipping). FIrst unqualified "I'll take it" posted here on the forum site gets it. Cross-posted, so the first date/time stamp has first rights. Once you post the "I'll take it" we need to have communicated regarding payment within 24 hours or I will offer the item to any subsequent buyer who wants it (posting the "I'll take it means you are committing to buy it and not wanting me to hold it for you - please understand that I am just trying to keep things fair for all parties).
