FINALLY!! my sos purchase. 1912 steyr 08 converted w/holster
This was tucked into a corner of an un-assuming case at the big show. This one I couldnt leave there. I have always had a soft spot for these. This is a 1915 dated example and it has Austrian unit marks on the lanyard ring. These were thought to have been refinished and rebarreled at mauser oberndorf. The orig holsters apear to all be unmarked. This had the holster and a stripper clip of orig ammo still in it.. It was a fresh to the market item and it was covered with the fuzzies and dirt & dried oil.
Now its all cleaned up to its former glory . Enjoy.
