Hi OTF, I wish I had a way to send you a picture of it. All I can do is to try to describe it.

I looked a bit for it last night but could not look for long because I was in a hurry to get ready to be out with my Nephews and my Sister(it was her birthday but, I had not remembered it)

Anyway, the holster is not--I repeat is not in anywhere near as good condition as my others are. It is well-worn but is complete and no major damages. It does show the wear and apparently it was stored with something sitting on top of it because part of the holster flap was bent back in an unnatural position and therefore there are stress marks in the leather where that happened.

AS far as I can remember, there is no loose stitching anywhere on the holster and that the holster is definately complete. The spare magazine pocket is also very intact but, also suffers from having something sitting on it. I am trying to remedy that by keeping a spare P-38 Magazine in the pocket to keep the leather stretched a bit.

The leather IS supple and in good condition. Also, whoever originally wore this holster definately did see usage. I almost forgot--the leather tab (to secure the closed flap) is still in pretty good condition and the holseter does close. There is no corrosion to any metal ringlets or to the snap.

I paid $30.00 for this holster, and if I can find it I will sell it to you for $30.00 and I will pay for the shipping.

Let me take more time tonight and will see if I can definately locate this holster. It should not be very hard to find, as it was in storage only a short time. It was stored in a box of spare clothes so no dust or anything could have stuck to it.

Let me know if this is to your liking and also I can try to get scans done of this holster(when I do locate it) at Kinkos and I can snailmail them to you if you wish.

Let me know how to proceed, and many thanks. [img]smile.gif[/img]
