RhinoDiesel,

Your Luger was manufactured in 1921 by Deutsche Waffen- und Munitionsfabriken in Berlin under a government contract. It was among the last 9-mm Lugers produced by DWM until about 1928-29. It was issued to the Schutzpolizei (state police) of Berlin, Luger # 10679. The holster is from WWII. Since there is no photo of the front, I can't tell if it is a police or military holster.
