According to "Das Heereswaffenamt" WaA18 was assigned to holster maker G. Reinhardt in 1922 and was renewed in 1937.

M /Anchor was replaced by Eagle / M in 1933. This is a Reichswehr Reichsmarine holster.

I want it!

I have been shown several WaA18 holsters, dated 1926, and they are attributed to Simson's; not that Simson made them, but that they were bought / issued with the gun, at least that is the conjecture (Jim Kemp and others)
