M1911 Cavalry Holster
The M1911 Cavalry Holster is a faithful reproduction of the U.S. Model 1912 cavalry rig originally issued to mounted troops carrying the Colt M1911 .45 ACP. Built from heavy brown leather with brass hardware, it features a full closure flap with slot-and-stud fastener, a rotating swivel with belt hanger to adjust the cant, and an adjustable leather thigh strap to keep the pistol steady at speed. The flap carries the embossed "U.S." marking found on original-issue holsters. Sized for full-size 1911 and 1911-A1 pistols, it suits WWI and WWII reenactors, collectors, and shooters who want a period-correct rig for their .45.

M1911 Cavalry holsterWell made, durable, and fits the weapon that it was made for perfectly. Other full size weapons fit it as well. A great value for the money.

Great looking, heavy duty holster!This holster should last many years with heavy use. Nicely made of thick, good quality leather. This is a reproduction of the holster my grandfather used when he served with the US Cavalry...A Troop...5th Cavalry... until WWI when the cavalry became "mechanized", as he called it. The holster is quite stiff..as most new holsters are...but soaked in water, and the pistol wrapped in plastic and allowed to dry, the holster will stretch out nicely and mold itself to my Springfield 1911-A1 Mil-spec pistol. Rubbing Mink oil into the holster once dried will preserve it nicely. Truly nostalgic and at a great price!
