US Mauser Holster

About the US Mauser Holster

US Mauser Holster is a non-firing reproduction finished in standard, built to the same scale as the original and supplied ready to display. The barrel is a solid casting and the chambers are blind, so nothing can be loaded or fired, while the mechanism still moves the way the original does. That is what makes it useful for a display case, a costume or a close up photograph.

A holster is cut for a frame, not for a brand. The 1911 pattern fits the Denix and Kimar 1911 replicas, the Peacemaker fits single action holsters with a 4.75 or 5.5 inch barrel, and a Schofield will not sit correctly in a Colt cut because the frame and latch are different. Measure the barrel length on the model page before ordering, and match it exactly.

Keep it out of direct sun and away from radiators: the standard finish fades unevenly in sunlight and heat dries the wood. A light coat of oil on a cloth, wiped over the metal twice a year, is enough. Store it in a cabinet or a presentation box rather than a foam case, because foam holds moisture against the metal.
