Presented here is a representative example of a AC 42 rig which I find to be in excellent condition for both the pistol and its holster. It has some unusual features which I trust you will find interesting as well.

Very nice! I guess I'll examine my grips for data. Strange,I've never removed them and I have several P38s. No telling what I'll find. Jim
