Cracking video Simon.

An interesting side note is most of the countries who participated in WW2 used the Browning Hi-Power. Obviously Commonwealth countries used British holsters but most our countries manufactured holsters to their own liking.

Very interesting to see the proofed British/Canadian holsters for the High Power. There are many more from other Countries including the Dutch 1950/60 type that is a varied copy of the Canadian one complete with the metal "pouch" for a mag. I have seen Belgium ones and they are really a world away. Surprising seeing that they invented and made the Weapon. Maybe a timeline of Holsters for the 9mm Browning High Power could be a subject for a future video? Or the different versions made by different Countries?

Point out that the pistol won’t fit if there’s a spare magazine in the internal pocket.

It would have been nice if you had identified the official nomenclature for these holsters.

[@RiflemanMoore]

The official nomenclature at the time of sealing is identified on the label accompanying each holster.

@@RiflemanMoore Thank you for your timely response. I have two examples of the last two in your presentation. Where I am confused is that one of mine is dated 1945 (ZL&T Canadian mfg) and the other is dated 1957 (CN/CG/B7146). Therefore, what was the official nomenclature from WWII until 1957? The only difference I can see is that the 1945 dated holster has a leather cleaning rod holder while the newer 1957 holster has a web rod holder. One reference I have lists the 1945 dated holster as "9mm Pistol Holster C No2 MkI" The "Holster, 1957 Patt. canvas" does not sound very official to me considering how well thought out and consistent most British nomenclature usually is.
