Thanks guys--I KNEW an item like this would go over well.

For Monty Cassino: I have been looking for a nice original for so long and snatched this one though at this time was not affordable. This is a case of "I HAD to."

Hi "J" I do have one. It is a 1944 made AC piece but--I don't have an original wartime P-38 magazine to go with it. Instead--I have two postwar produced 8 rd mags.

Hi Erich--I wish I still had two. My BYF November 41 made P-38 was stolen back on January 6 2000. The police even knows who took it but--over three years later--I still have not had my pistol returned.

Also, the current P-38 is my 4th one I have had. The 1st one was a BYF 42 model, which I got for about $325.00 and was one of those Stalingrad battlefield pickups that the Russians released for sale to the USA back in about 1991. Like a knothead--I sold this one.

My next P-38 was another BYF 43, and I traded it for my Artillery Officers peaked visor I now and still have. The 3rd P-38 was the one stolen. I have had this current one for about 4 years.

Hi OTF, sorry I cannot offer one for sale but, I know where I can still get nice ones for about $425.00.

However, I do have two other P-38 holsters I could part with. The one that is brown is kinda ragged but--everything still there and it held my P-38 well untill I bought the 1963 made black Police P-38 holster.

When things get better for me, I do plan on buying more P-38s. I like them much better than Lugers--with two Luger exceptions. 1) a nice 1917 DWM Artillery Luger and a ww2 Navy Luger.
