Alphabet Commercial Holster
 

Fellows

What kind of holster would be appropriate for an alphabet commercial luger that is not marked military or special order...just a run of the mill gun?

Did the Germans export/offer any sort of holster for commercial guns?

Is it marked GERMANY or not?

An Alphabet Commercial without the marking would not have been exported to the US. The Germans were not big on custom holsters, any military-style without markings would be appropriate. If you can find one from Albricht Kind marked AkAh tht would be good, AK was a major maker and dealer of commercial P08 holsters.

A GERMANY marked pistol was explicitly a U.S. marketed pistol. Americans have always been big on custom holsters, so any holster from a U.S. maker would work. The most common holsters re cheap flap-style holsters with a decorative edge stamp. These were sold by virtually any sporting goods, hardware, or dry-goods store. Custom manufacturers such as H.H.Heiser, Eubanks, several other manufacturers. They could be had plain or with any amount of decorative carving.

My alphabet gun is marked 'Germany" on the right side of the upper.
Very good shooter. I was wondering if the Germans exported holsters to the US, along with the guns.

No, holsters were not exported along with the guns.
