good morning , has anyone seen a left handed holster similar to the one below, its stamped USAF, but its a lefty , I have seen a couple of right handed holster but never a lefty??
what era and for what revolver did the US Air Force Issue this
holster ??
please post , rooster

It looks like a cold war era air crew mans flap holster made for a 4 inch revolver. I have never seen a left handed one before but have seen(and owned) it's double in a right handed variety. Most of the holsters I have seen like this are for the 2 inch S&W model 13 aircrewman but, they were made for the 4 inch as well, as for what pistols the were used for the one I had was made loose enough that it wold take just about any revolver with the right barrel length.

hi mabk, do you know who made your holsters , the best I can find out only two companies made the 4 inch variety Western and Service Mfd. Co. , please post rooster

I no longer have the holster, it went with the pistol I got it with when I traded it, but my inventory notes read that it was made by Milwaukee Saddlery Co. in Yonkers N.Y. so I probably got that off the holster, I don't usually research holsters unless they for some reason make me curious so I hope that is correct.

howdy mabk , what type of pistol went with the holster ??

many thanks,rooster

S&W model 15 not military mark if it were I'da kept it.
