The CZ75 was rather prolific and mostly an export gun to many nations for police/security and some military use. Was there a military/police standardized flap holster specifically made to pair with it? Considering it emerged in an era where military flap holsters were still the norm, I would have expected the Czechs in particular to offer a pairing for it for interested agencies. What if any holsters were used with it - I assume many just used what was around for other guns like the Browning HP etc. |

Most captured holsters was a web flapped British design for BHP When I bought my first cz75 in Germany (88’), I had Bruce Nelson make me one of his original Summer Specials. Still have it |

The 75 is the most produced handgun in the world. Countries producing 75s include USA (Bren 10, Springfield Armory P9, Armalite AR-24) Philippines China Turkey Switzerland Brazil North Korea Italy Israel, And several others as well. Tons of boosters out in the world; probably not too many imported though. |
Just for fun, I made my own for my Sarzilmaz SAR 2000, which is a clone of the CZ-75.  I'm sure users had some sort of military holster, although these days not necessarily a full flap. Types that fits the CZ very well are the various leather and canvas/nylon holsters for the Browning Hi-Power. Since many of the countries that use the CZ also used the Browning, the same holsters were just re-purposed. For a replica that is used for both...... https://www.atthefront.com/product-p/ggphhpb.htm |

I wanted to pick up a slab-side retro and pair it with some cold-war era vintage appropriate holster. |

I have 3 steel framed, and 2 poly frames Sar CZ clones along with a K2-45 and K2-45C (Damn you PSA). Great pistols but I don’t want to spend half what I paid for them for a holster. |
