It is a nice looking holster and, as Jerry pointed out, definitely Bulgarian style. What intrigues me is that an '06 Swiss Luger fits in it perfectly. That would mean that it was made for a 4.75" barreled Luger. The last Bulgarian 4.75" barreled Luger was the 1906 7.65mm and most of them were rebarreled to 4" 9mm. I doubt that there were many (if any) 4.75" barreled Lugers in service in WWII.
