We have a lot of Pacific Theater items. Lots of Japanese items, Arisaka slings, cleaning rods, Nambu Holsters, Japanese Helmets, Soft Caps, Equipment Belts, Bayonet Frogs, Haversacks Etc. We also have US M1941 Haversacks. M1923 Cartridge Belts, M1936 Pistol belts, Cross Flap Canteen Covers etc. Etc. Its all there.
This and its diminutive precursor the FN1910 should find a place in the hearts and hands of every lover of the M1911. All posses the instinctive ergonomics and perfect pointability that John Browning brought to his handgun designs.
The model 1934 was adopted by the Italian Army in 9mm Croto (.380 acp), the Air Force and Navy adopted it as the Model 1935 in 7.65mm (.32acp). The Germans took over the factory in 1943 and had the M1935 made or the. Your holster I one of the made for that order.
I have one of these Wa281 marked Unique pistols with the original holster. These occupation pistols are called the "Kreigsmodell" 7.65mm and mine shoots fantastic!👍
I believe the Germans restricted the French police during their occupation to .32 caliber pistols. Granted the Milice were allowed other weapons, but just as often they were given captured Allied weapons.
Looks like this pistol is a combination of a M-1911a1, a Tokorov, and a Browning High Point pistol. I don't know what the internal mechanisms look like. Plus, the Radom Vis-35 pistol uses the common 9mm Lugar ammunition. No oddball stuff like that 7.62x25 the Tokorov uses. Yes the .45-acp is not too common in most countries. Not to worry though. The .45-acp is one of the most common types of pistol ammunition in America.
Very Similar to the M1911. A lot of other countries coped the M1911 design but put their own twist on it. We will do a field strip video in the future.
@@WorldWarSupply He's downstairs right now at 98 years old, but he has dementia so I can't get the facts. I think the story was someone gave it to him after the war. He was just a kid in the Navy, served on the water in Japan mostly. I have a thread that absolutely blew up on Reddit on Ian's r/ForgottenWeapons sub if you want to take a look. It starts with "Always an Arisaka...?" Maybe you can determine if it's a Type 99 or Type 38??
Seeing what I call substandard performance of the Mosin-Nagant I am all too happy to have my Smith & Wesson revolvers. Those .357-magnums are far better than that anemic .30 caliber (7.62mm). Rather have my .38-special, a S&W-10 that had it's beginnings in 1897.
Just like the 1911 is one of the best looking semis, the python is one of the best looking revolvers, next to the SAA. SAA is classic, but the python is its cousin that just got out of prison.
As always I prefer blued handguns. The grips look like the combat style grips on my S&W-586. There are not so aggressive finger grooves that are just right. Changed the traditional walnut grips to combat contour rosewood grips. There are a lot of grip makers with lots of styles you can choose from. Personally those rubber grips are just tacky. There's a certain amount of class and distinction with wood grips on a revolver.
I know. A friend gave it to be before he passed so I cant complain. Could get some new grips if it really bothered me. At least the revolver itself is in great shape.
So are you saying that you sell a Victory model shoulder holster for a S&W-629, .44-mag? If you have a Victory model holster that would fit a modern made S&W-10+P and the S&W-586 let me know. I have a Victory holster to fit a S&W-10 actually made in 1945. Modern S&W's are slightly larger. My newer #10 is larger due to being +P rated. The original size of older holsters are not suitable for wider recently made revolvers. I also have an M-7 shoulder holster for a M-1911a1 just like the holster I actually used to carry an M-1911a1 back in the 1970's & 1980's. If you have a M-7 style shoulder holster that can fit a Sig-226 or the Beretta R92FS let me know. Even better magazine pouches for double stack magazines. Made of the style for the M-1911a1 single stack magazines.
They are all Military Versions of regular production Civilian Revolvers. The Victory is 38 cal while the M1917 is a little larger and .45 cal. Using simplified versions of already in production civilian revolvers enabled production to start immediately.
