Title Leather holster for Royal Irish Constabulary 455 Webley revolver
Nationality British
Period c 1920
Sold

Superb example of a fairly rare holster (for a 4" barrel), typical of what the Royal Irish Constabulary would have carried during the Troubles following the Easter Rising in April 1916. A real piece of Irish history. The reverse is nicely marked 'Wilkinson Pall Mall'.

It got here this morning, presumably delayed by the holidays. It is perfect, indeed better than I was expecting.

Good news, my friend, the boot knife has arrived safe and sound. This example will more than fill my collection need.
