    Luftwaffe double barrel flare gun

    For the Luftwaffe double barrel flare gun, how were these carried?
    Is the a special holster or some type of pouch for them?

    Thanks,
    Tony

      I know there where special brackets for them in for example the junkers transport plane. The weren't carried in a holster.

          Appreciate the help on this. Makes perfect sense that they had a designated area for them in planes or armored cars. Anybody seen a carrier/holster for these if carried on foot?

            Hi Tony,
            Not sure this kind of flare guns has never been carried by foot. Pilots were using single barrel as FJ. They have some specific holster (web made or included in their clothes). Double barrel flare guns were used in plane or on airport or by LW vehicles.
            Never seen pictures on the filed in other situation
            Regards

              There are postwar holsters made for the postwar version of this pistol.
