Martinf Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Hi, I have this holster and was wondering if any of you know any information about this belt. I cant see any date marks so I was wondering how old it may be? and also how much its worth? Thank you in advance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert Rat Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Hello Martin, Maybe send some images to a specialised dealer for a date and complete valuation? Sure it's worth a good price for you! Best to you.....Ian/ Desert Rat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 https://www.greatwesternauctions.com/ Have a look at this auction site...It's Anita Manning from - Bargain Hunt - they do Military Valuations, but may charge, ask first.

Martinf Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 Thanks Ian I will look into it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Rat Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Hello Martin, Many Thanks for the OK for me. I am sure if the belt and buckle is worth about £200.........The complete lot could get you (I hope) in excess of £300 - £400+....Very good luck and I hope you do very well with it. Best to you...Ian/ Desert Rat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
