HISTORY OF THE EXPERIMENTAL “1932-34”
(M1, CANVAS HOLSTER, FOR AUTO PISTOL)
*** IN 1932 THE US MILITARY CAME TO THE
DECISION TO REQUEST THE DESIGN AND PRODUCTION OF
A NEW EXPERIMENTAL HOLSTER, MANUFACTURED IN CANVAS
AS A BACKUP TO THE STD US LEATHER M1916
PISTOL HOLSTER, INCASE A WAR PRODUCTION
ISSUE DURING A CONFLICT CAUSED A SHORTAGE OF THE STD LEATHER HOLSTER,
AND THE MILITARY WANTED A BACKUP MODEL “JUST IN CASE” TO FILL A DEPLETED
LEATHER HOLSTER INVENTORY.
CAPTAIN JULIAN S. HATCHER OF THE US MILITARY
EQUIPMENT BOARD OF PROCUREMENT AND REVIEW
CONTACTED COLONEL H.W. SCHULL OF THE
ROCK ISLAND ARSENAL ON BEHALF OF THE
CHIEF OF ARMY ORDNANCE TO DESIGN & BUILD
SUCH A HOLSTER.
3 SAMPLE MODELS WERE DESIGNED WITH SOME
REVISIONS THRU THE SERIES.
MANUFACTURED IN (OD) OLIVE DRAB CANVAS
WITH REAR REINFORCED WEB BACK & BELT HOOK.
DESIGNED TO CARRY THE STD M1911 .45 OR
SIMILAR AUTO PISTOL.
THE FIRST SAMPLE DRAWING & HOLSTER WAS
PROVIDED TO THE REVIEW BOARD IN JUNE 1932.
THE ESTIMATED COST FOR DEVELOPMENT WAS
ESTIMATED AT 5.
UPON REVIEW THE NEW (M1) CANVAS MODEL
WAS ACCEPTED FOR FIELD TRIALS IN AUG. 1932
THE FIRST 20 HOLSTERS WERE ISSUED TO
FORT RILEY, KANSAS.
THE NEXT 15 HOLSTERS WERE ISSUED TO
FORT BENNING, GEORGIA,
AND THE NEXT 15 HOLSTERS WERE ISSUED TO
FORT BRAGG, NORTH CAROLINA,
FOR A TOTAL OF (50) EXPERIMENTAL HOLSTERS
ISSUED FOR FIELD TRIALS & TESTING.

TH
1933 >>
UPON REVIEW BY THE FIELD ARTILLERY BOARD >
THE EXPERIMENTAL M1 CANVAS HOLSTER WAS
FOUND TO HAVE A FEW SMALL ISSUES, THAT
WERE DEEMED INCONSEQUENTIAL, AND THAT
THE HOLSTER WAS DEEMED SUCCESSFUL AND
ACCEPTED FOR USE TO SUPPORT THE M1916
LEATHER HOLSTER AS AN ADDITIONAL HOLSTER SUBSTITUTE, INCASE THE NEED AROSE
UNDER WAR TIME CONDITIONS TO SUPPLEMENT
INVENTORY SHORTAGES.
THE EXPERIMENTAL M1 CANVAS HOLSTER WAS
FIELD TESTED BETWEEN 1932-1934 AND THEN
THE PROJECT WAS PERMANENTLY SIDELINED
AND STOPPED AND IT IS BELIEVED THAT
ALL 53 HOLSTERS WERE LATER DESTROYED.
