It's a 100 year old Colt revolver) I would really like to shoot it, but good luck on finding rounds. Need to load some for it! <br /><br />Thanks again to everyone!Keadshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09982258812373127063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-54462558438684327302010-04-18T17:30:14.324-04:002010-04-18T17:30:14.324-04:00@Buddy,

Short form: It's am M3 autopistol holster with field modifications to accomodate a revolver. It needs the Conway buckle to make it usable.

It is identical to my M7, which is in front of me, except for that extra row of stitching which, when you think of it, appears to trace the Victory profile.

It leads to the possibility that the same expedient might have been used for the GO pistols.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00034752526895428019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15907727.post-37599533247087760572010-04-16T22:40:09.650-04:002010-04-16T22:40:09.650-04:00It is Boyt, 43 appears to be the year.
