Hi,

From your previous post, you have a byf 41 Luger. You did not give the serial number, which would always help when trying to figure out just what one has. The correct acceptance marks are E/135 E/135. These are late markings for a byf and usually in the no suffix, a, or b suffix of the serial range. They could have either wood or black plastic grips and either blank black plastic magazines or blank aluminium based magazines. The holster dated 1936 which would be too early for this Luger originally, and the tool should be marked either E/655 or E/135. What condition is the gun in? Sounds like a nice find.
