Dave, the marking is from the Landjägerei (rural constabulary) of the Prussian administrative district of Magdeburg. It does not designate a specific city.

It is extremely rare to have a P08, holster and bayonet with matching property marks. I know of only one other set pictured on p. v of Jan Still's Weimar Lugers. Congratulations!!!

Does it have a DWM logo on the top of the middle toggle link or is it blank?
