Thanks to "signalman" who I finally met in Louisville, I was able to complete this quest.
I bought the holster 2 years ago on "fleebay" for a good price and now have a great "rig"!
We had a great conversation while "dickering" on the price of the flare gun when we realized we actually knew each other!
Gotta LUV big gun shows with lots of friends at the tables!

Hi Mark,
Nice!!! What you did is what it is all about.
Great conversation, great flare guns and great-fantastic friends.
I met 'Signalman' at the Columbus Ohio show around 30 years ago.
May your friends grow and prosper.

Hello Mark, Glad to help. Now you know you need a Japanese Holster for this flare pistol, Not the North China Version you show in your illustrations ? ?
Guns have only two enemies, rust and politicians.
I am still looking for ANY information regarding the European Use of the Original Costons flares from 1859 through 1881. Photo's, Patents, contracts & orders, ANY INFORMATION IS NEEDED ! !

Re: Type 90 Double Barrel with holster
Yes Mark, I have 3 or 4 of the holsters, and at least 2 of the pistols from N. China.

I saw one of those launchers many years ago in a gun shop in Port Angeles Wa.
I took a few pictures of it because I had never seen one before.
