Mr. Burney,
Thank you so much, I appreciate and value your comments. I'm now very intrigued by your comment ... "I can't recall ever seeing one of these."
I had researched the P-38 holsters as well and found their contour around the grip area not as pronounced as mine. Possibly different holster manufacturers were allowed some creative license when developing the shape of their holsters.
I will post some more pictures of both a 1939 P-38 holster and my 1939 A. Fischer holster and would be interested in your observations.
Sincerely,
Ed Vedder
