UNITED STATES PATENTN OFFICE;
ORINTON MOSES HANSGOM, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS, ASSIGNOR TO WILLIAM BEAD 8U SONS, OE SAME PLACE.
HOLSTER FOR PISTOLS.
SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 317,128, dated May 5, 1885.
Application tiled February 20,1885. (No model.) I V u specification and represented in the accompanying drawings, of which- Figure 1 is a top View, Fig. 2 a longitudinal section, and Fig. 3 a front elevation, of a holster of my invention, the nature of which vis defined in the claims hereinafter presented.
This holster is designed for a pistol or revolver to be carried in the pocket of the coat or trousers of an individual; and the improve- `ment 'is to preserve the holster steadily in place in the pocket, or to have such holster lit so closely to the pocket as to prevent the holster from swaying or moving laterally therein, one object being to keep the barrel ofthe pistol as nearly in one or a vertical direction as possible, in order that should the pistol be accidentally discharged when in the holster and the latter is in the pocket of the trousers or coat of a person the danger of wounding him or another or others near him may be lessened in comparison to what it would be were the holster tapering from its top to its bottom.
My said improvement consists in a holster whose back plate is substantially rectangular or has its two longer edges parallel, or about so, the lower corners of such plate being round instead of right angular, the said back plate being provided with a recess or notch across which the pistol-handle is toextend when the pistol is in the socket of the holster. This notch is to enable a person to more readily grasp the istol when in the holster than he could were the plate without such notch. The notch also serves to prevent in a measure, if not entirely, the holster from accidentally falling or being surreptitiously extracted from the pocket, as in an attempt to draw the pistol from the holster such pistol would generally be pulled in a way to cause the upper part of the pocket to be caught in the notch.
In the drawings the holster is shown as constructed of a back plate, A, and a front piece,
B, the latter being molded to the propershape for receiving the pistol between it and the back plate, and allowing the handle or stock of such y pistol to protrude above the mouth or upper end of the said piece B in manner as represented by the dotted lines. The front piece is connected to the back at or near the ledges of the former by sewing. The notch in the upper part or corner of the back plate is shown at a, and the pistol stock or handle extending across such notch is represented in dotted lines at b.
I do not claim a pocket-holster constructed of a single rectangular-shaped piece of sheet material folded at its middle and sewed together at its ends and from edge to edge, so as to form in it at such middle a pistol pocket or receptacle, and extended `therefrom on one side thereof only a stiff lateral web or flange, as I do not so construct my pocket-pistol holster, it being made in two-separate pieces arranged and connected by sewing, as hereinbefore explained.
I claim- 1. The pocket-holster as constructed of th concavo-convex front piece or pistol-receptacle B, and of the stiff backA, and having the said receptacle attached at its side and bottom edges to the said back, and the latter extended' laterally from such receptacle in manner and for the purpose substantially as set forth.
2.- The holster having its back piece formed with its opposite longer edges parallel, or essentially so, and in its upper part with a recess or notch, as described, arranged in it so as to be crossed by the handle or stock of a pistol when such pistol is within the holster, all being substantially as set forth.
3. The holster having its back piece formed with itsl two opposite longer edges parallel, or essentially so, and with its lower corners rounded, and with a recess or notch arranged in it so as to be crossed by the stock or handle of a pistol when such pistol is within the holster, all being substantially as represented.
