Hello! I purchased this holster a few months ago and threw it on my USMC display... Now, I am starting to update that display and I am replacing the pistol belt with a USMC marked M1923 Garand belt. The web belt itself, and the ammo pouch, are WWI era items and I was thinking about starting a WWI display/set up.

 

So is this WWI or WWII? The stamp is pretty much gone. Thanks.

I have a Graton & Knight Co. Made holster without a date, which is considered WWII by everyone who has seen it.

 

This one really looks to be in good shape for a WWI made piece. I would say WWII, but maybe someone here who knows more will chime in. Thanks for sharing regardless.

It is hard to diagnose without having it in hand to examine, but given the brass M1910 hook I would say it is more likely than not WW1 production.

 

Regards,
