Description

Soft shell holster designed for the ASTRA 300 pistol.

It is made in light brown ERSATZ material except the closing strap(in leather); inside finish is cream.

No official markings as expected on this special material BUT the holster is named (JAMES HENRY) and the owner put the serial number of the ASTRA 300 pistol (618403) as well as the caliber (9 mm).

Amother interesting finding is a small metallic plaque inserted on the back and mentioning a name (Haacke) that could be the name from the German owner of the holster.

This holster is detailed in the book WW2 German Military Holster on page 277.

A much interesting and historical piece of history …
