smith, these have the "typical" east german grips, plus it is obviously a mismatch. The reason I say that is that although the toggle number is the same, byf equals the code for Mauser, and they did not exist in 1917, plus the other markings / proofs on the gun / right of the receiver are Erfurt, which ceased to exist in 1918.

Value would be around $500-$600, the holster another $50-$125, although it depends on who made it an when. I don't believe it is a luger holster, possibly a p38 (might be post war, and value would go down if it is).
