A package with second-hand Indiana Jones gear, bought from a member here, just came in this morning. Among the items were a rubber Webley MK IV and a Raiders holster from Western Stage Props. I just thought I would share some pictures with you people.

The Revolver is cast is solid hard rubber with a metal lanyard pin attatched. It is, though somewhat roughly finished, very detailed, with all the original markings present. The MK IV is smaller than the MK VI used in LC - and fits the Raiders Holster perfectly.

Front view of the holster - I am impressed by the quality of the finish and workmanship. This holster is not just a costume piece.

Back view of the holster - showing the label of the maker; Alfonso's Holster and Gunshop i N.H. Calif.


I am very happy with the set - and though it is not screen accurate to use them together (heck, the MK IV is not screen accurate at all) it still has a nice "Indy-feel" to them :)

You do leather work your self, how is the quality of the leather? It looks good on the photo and I like the color ( screen accurate or not :wink: )
cheers,

The quality of the leather is definitly in the higher end of the scale. It is the kind of leather that, with occational treatments with oil og leather grease, will last for quite some years in the field.

Just to show of some more :D; another picture showing the inside of the holster. The edge dips down a little to allow easy access to the revolver.

By the way; the "plug" in the end of the holster is made with a hole to allow condensed water, rain and gun-oil to escape from the holster.

Nice! :tup:

I read somewhere that WSP doesn't ship their rubber guns to Europe, can someone confirm this? Of course yours was secondhand.

Thanks :)

But that is, as far as I understand, only about their blank firing guns - It doesn't say anything about their rubber guns or non firing metal replicas.

Nice purchase Jeep! The holster does look very good indeed. I just bought a Todds deluxe and am happy with mine too.

Good luck :)
