Collection only.
Cash only, no swaps, no Revolut.

Issued and in excellent condition.

Original US Navy issue pistol lanyard.
Steel clip and keeper, it's the later world war alligator clip type.
Anchor marking on the clip.
Much safer than the US Army lanyard that has a nasty habit of coming off your pistol.
Length (Approx): 85cm (33").

The lanyard is also known as a dummy cord and has the sole purpose of not allowing you to lose the pistol.

In use, the lanyard was intended to be looped over the right shoulder and held in place by the epaulet.
Few people would loop it around the neck due to the danger of getting choked.

MP's used the lanyard as a means of insuring the gun wouldn't be snatched during a barroom brawl, and it was in fact, an official part of the MP uniform.

In many cases, the lanyard became more of a parade dress item, and were used during dress events to enhance the uniform.

The lanyard has again become popular in the military, especially with Special Operations forces.
Todays lanyard is a strong synthetic coiled cord that looks like a coiled phone cord.

I’m doing a big clear-out at the moment and this is surplus to my needs.
