Abstract
A holster includes a continuous piece of leather folded along two spaced apart and generally parallel fold lines to form an end wall which is continuous with the inner and outer side walls of the holster. The continuous end wall resists wear and tear from a heavy automatic weapon constantly being pushed down into the holster. The holster also has a belt loop attached to the inner side wall of the holster by nylon stitching extending through a thin, flexible sheet of thread-holding material disposed between the belt loop and the holster side wall. The thread-holding sheet resists the possibility of the belt loop being torn away from the holster. An extension of the inner side wall panel holds a female snap ring fastener for receiving a male snap ring fastener on a strap which loops over the hammer of the firearm. The female snap ring is recessed to prevent interference with a firearm being withdrawn from the holster.
