It is very, very unlikely that the nazi stamp is original on the holster, would need pictures.

Take pictures with your phone, send them to yourself, attempt to post, might have to resize, but should work.

Lugers were the mainstay gun prior to ww1, Weimar period, then up to 1938 (p38 stands for 1938), however the Luger was made until 1942 and a few were made later...

So, they were used for many years and you see ww1 guns used in ww2 frequently.
