Original Japanese WWII Imperial Navy Two Barrel Type 90 Flare Signal Pistol Holster - Rare

Original Item. Only One Available. This is a great example of a holster for a scarce Japanese Two Barrel flare pistol. Only about 10,000 Double Barrel versions of the Type 90 were manufactured with a very poor survival rate. Firstly, these were used on Aircraft and on Naval vessels and as History has shown us, the Japanese were very determined fighters and did not surrender easily. In fact most of the production run of these pistols ended up at the bottom of the Pacific ocean.

The holster is marked on the bottom with an ink stamp that we cannot identify. The brown leather holster is in great worn condition with the leather still pliable. The securing strap which is stitched to the back wraps around to the front to attach to the knob. 

The back retains both belt loops are both rings for attachment of a carrying strap, which is absent. 

A rare holster, ready for display.
