Tracy, You and many others, seem to be under the misperception that all new production PO8s were issued with new production holsters. This was not the case. Most of the new holsters made in 1935 went to the police and the clothing depots issued the military whatever was available from their inventory of left-over WW1 & Weimar made holsters. When you find a holster of the same date as the luger that it contains, I can almost guarantee you that some collector has matched it up. I've never obtained a PO8 from a vet in a matching date holster.
