| Early First
Type Audley Holster for the Colt Model M russet in
color. Holster is in good condition overall showing some
wear from use. I have included four photos of this
holster. You can tell it's early from the single rivet used
to attach the spring clip. The later variations had two
rivets and even later versions were marked "Folsom's Audleys."
The Audley's Patent marking is on the back of the holster
and the date is October 13, 1914. |

| Unusual
Abercrombie & Fitch holster for the Model M. A&F was
one of the most prestigious sporting goods stores in New
York and sold many very deluxe Colt firearms. This holster
is in unused condition, dark brown with lighter brown trim,
sturdy in construction and has an attached holder for a
spare magazine. This holster still has the original
"Abercrombie & Fitch" hang tag attached to the strap. |
