Please use this thread to post comments on the Heer Model Leather Holsters.

Use the other thread to add new holsters and markings.

Howard, you have a wonderful collection of holsters for the Heer Modell LP. Did you get the brown Reizstoffpistol holster from Syd Rachwahl some years ago. I had a polaroid snap-shot of it when it was for sale, but I thought it went to Europe.

I might comment that the intertwined PT/TP marking on your Black Heer Technical Police Holsters is the acceptance marking of the Prussian Schutzpolizei Acceptance Office in Berlin. There was not a Technical Police force per see. The marking indicated the acceptance office that was called the Technische Polizeischule. It was called earlier the Polizei Beschaffungsamt and eventually morphed into the Technicsche Amt f. Waffen u. Gerat that used the well-known E/B.

Thank you Joe. I do not for sure know that the Brown Reizstoffpistole holster came from Syd, as I cannot remember all my purchases, but it is most likely the same holster.

I do remember you explaining the Technsche Polizeischule holster, but in my ignorance of the German Language it was easier to remember it incorrectly. Now that the information is posted here correctly, I will always be able to look it up. I thank you, and will correct my posts on these holsters.

Howard, great idea for a reference thread on heer model leather holsters, and some beauties too. I love the brown one!

Regards, Weidman

Howard, Do all your police flare gun holsters have police marked cleaning rods? I have the following marked pokice cleaning rods, Eagle L, Eagle D, and Eagle K. One of these days I will figure out how to get my pictures small enought to post them on this forum.

Hi,
I did have the opportunity to get this brown holster but ... I didn't go further...
Please, don't tell me that I have made a mistake ...

Brown holsters are quite scarce, even rare, compared to Black holsters. You should list a photo of it, and marking along with the other heer holsters.

No, I have a few cleaning rods that are police marked, but not enough for each of my police holsters.

Try taking a sharp photo from a distance, then crop the photo, that may reduce the pixels in the photo enough to post. I do that, then resize if still too large to post.
