1909 Holster markings help needed


 Share

Recommended Posts

Here is my M1909 holster that my son got me for Christmas a couple years ago.  It's a 1917 dated G&K with the A.G. inspector's mark, though you need to use a lupe to read it (I took the photo with my iPhone through a 8x lupe and it didn't turn out too bad).  The front flap is stamped with unit information and I'm hoping the gurus here can decipher it for me.  It's very hard to read (even with a lupe), but what my son and I both see is:  "3134 FA" , or "8134 FA" over the number "7".  I tried to take a close-up photo but it just didn't work well.  Thanks for any help you folks can provide.

Possibly a "B." B 134 FA / 7 for Battery B, 134th Field Artillery, soldier #7. The 134th FA was part of the 37th Division.
