1911 Erfurt unit marked mated rig
http://forums.lugerforum.com/lfupload/101_0191.jpg The unlikely has happened. I took delivery of a holster today. And now have a unit marked matched rig. I bought the 1911 Erfurt a couple of months ago. It has 3 unit marks. 12th Train-Battallion, 3rd Sanitats, 223rd waffen. 108th Saxonian Schuetzenregiment,(Honor name Sachs.Schutzen (Fusilier)-Regiment"Prinz George"). And 98th Inf.Regiment,8th Kompagnie, 11th waffen. http://forums.lugerforum.com/lfupload/101_0192.jpg I won the holster on ebay. The seller was a forum member. Dave his forum name is "taudelt".It's not in mint condition, but it ain't bad. And it's unit matched. http://forums.lugerforum.com/lfupload/101_0185.jpg http://forums.lugerforum.com/lfuploa...0186_copy1.jpg http://forums.lugerforum.com/lfupload/101_0184.jpg Hope you enjoy looking at it!!

Nice Rig Ron!
|
Love these "story book" Lugers, and this one is a dandy. Great acquisition, you have a winner.

John and Ron the Learned, Thanks, I'm happy with it. It would be so great to know where it's been, and what it's been through. The holster is going off to Jerry for a bit of first aid. Nothing drastic, all in all it's in pretty good condition.

Are you saying you found a holster that matches one of the unit markings on your Luger, and if so, which one? Could you show a pic of the unit mark on the holster?

Saxman, The pistol is marked to the 98th Inf Reg.
and the holster is marked AJR98 which translates to Artillery Inf. Regiment 98. Or the 98th Inf. Regiment, Artillery. The Artillery unit assigned to the 98th Inf. The pistol and holster were both issued to the 98th Infantry Regiment. I won't call them matched, but they are mated. The holster is a 1915. If it were a 1911, then I would call it matched. Ron |
Thanks - I see it now that I know what to look for.
