Great leather shoulder holster for the Colt M1911 .45 pistol from WW2 marked US and Boyt This was a famous maker of these holsters during WW2. Adopted in 1942, this holster was standard issue for aircraft and tank crews, and was often used by officers who preferred it to the hip holster. In combat areas, all sorts of troops found ways to "acquire" handguns and the regulations as to who was and wasn't permitted to carry them were rarely enforced. Used in the field; as alway, the bottom snap is fully functional, which is normally almost always broken, and the holster has nice light brown color. This would look great on a mannequin. It is embossed on the front U.S. meaning it was military issues (not civilian). See photo's for conditon. This version dates around 1943. Great item for your USA WW2 collection!
