Been a little quiet here recently. Thought I'd post my baby.

Pistol is in excellent condition. What appears to be missing blueing on the slide is actually a reflection.

This booklet belongs to someone else (probably Bill)

:hail:

Beautiful piece! Love the RZM marking on the side, as well. Never seen a holster like that before, but that pattern certainly explains all the terrible fakes on gunbroker!

Here is my contribution. Complete witht he original DRGM marked holster with orange stichting normally assosiated with the RZM PPK's. Also, a unit history and misc cards. Purchased front the vets widow. He was a SSgt in the 14th Armor. Ron

that is really cool.... add it to the want list! :thumbsup:

how do you think most GI's came across these? obviously not combat pieces. Suicides? Turn in piles (dont think they would turn it in in the holster probably)? Formal surrenders?

Probably trades in poker games! :laugh:

That Party Leader Holster is a screamer. Its probably worth more than the gun!

Nice that you're keeping it all together Ron! Here is the pistol that actually came in my holster. If or when these ever leave my stable, they will be put back together. I've never intentionally split anything up and don't intend to start....

Here is the Akah holster for my RZM pistol. This model with the magazine pouch on the spine is also a rare holster. Pity it's not in better condition.

tanker1 · Sep 19, 2012

Thanks Denny. I agree, I don't split items up either. Notice on the cards that his father's business was in Corydon, IN. Anywhere near you? Ron

denny gaither · Sep 19, 2012

Apologies for the lousy pictures, but here is another tough holster to find. This one directly from the vet with a beautiful Walther PP marked
"SA der NSDAP"
"Gruppe Berlin-Brandenburg".
It also had the capture papers.

oops - forgot one.

Hey Ron,

Actually I'm within a 5 minute walk of the Michigan border. Corydon is in the southern part of the state. Roughly 200 miles or so.

Here is a pic of all four political holsters offered by Albrecht Kind during the NS Zeit. I snagged this picture on the internet a few years ago. I have absolutely no hopes of ever stumbling across the NSKK or the NSFK holsters.

This NSFK holster brings tears to my eyes!!!! It sold on RIA a year or two ago for really silly bucks.

tanker1 · Sep 19, 2012

Sharp looking holsters. Thanks for sharing, Ron

Im in Southern Michigan Denny- and id be MORE than happy to take that PP or PPK off your hands :happy0180:

Great post

Beautiful guns and holsters by all. This thread made my day... :thumbsup:

mrfarb · Sep 20, 2012

Have you done the research on the SA Gruppe Berlin-Brandenburg? Pretty nasty fellows from what I've read and a very rare pistol. I have a book (in German) on this group.

denny gaither · Sep 20, 2012

You are right Mike. It also seems that the "Berlin-Brandenburg" pistols are among the scarcest of the "Gruppe" marked guns. Since that area fell into the Russian conquered and occupied zone may have been a factor.
Just to set the record straight, I traded this pistol and holster several years ago for a righteous byf44 high-turret sniper rifle, and also a Russian 91/30 with a PE scope that came from Viet Nam.
It has since changed hands a few times and now the gun and holster have been split up. I realize it's their property to do with as they see fit, but it still pisses me off!
