Original Item. Only One Available. This is a very nice brown leather flap top holster with a spare magazine compartment to the front, as issued with the Czech ČZ vz. 27 Pistol. This example is in great shape with some verdigris on the metal fittings, and the leather is a bit stiff. It also looks like the belt loop may have been having the stitching pull at the bottom, so it was reinforced with two rivets.

The holster is stamped on the back with the CZ logo of Česká zbrojovka Uherský Brod, the same company that manufactured the pistols! It is also marked with Waffenamt stamp WaA76 and 1941, the manufacture date. To the right of this it is stamped P. Mod. 27, giving the German designation for the pistol. As there were so many different types in service, all with slightly different dimensions and magazine shapes, the holsters were marked to prevent confusion.

This is a very nice example, well-marked, ready for display with your CZ-27.

The vz. 27 is a Czechoslovak semi-automatic pistol, based on the pistole vz. 24, and chambered for 7.65 mm Browning/.32 ACP. It is often designated the CZ 27 after the naming scheme used by the Česká zbrojovka factory for post-World War II commercial products. However, it is correctly known as vz. 27, an abbreviation of the Czech "vzor 27", or "Model 27". After the German occupation of Czechoslovakia in mid-March 1939 the pistol was folded into the German armed and police forces as the P27. One notable example was confiscated from a German guard in Colditz by the 'Medium Sized Man' (Flt. Lt. Dominic Bruce OBE MC AFM KSG) the day it was liberated.
