WilH.Brand manufactured leather goods in Heidelberg, per the marking on your holster. They also made map cases and other goods.

The WaffenAmt office inspector was WaA/204, and was active at this factory several years:

WaA204 jvf W. Brand
Heidelberg 1936,38,39,41

"jvf" was their military concealment code.

The Luger was military accepted, so was probably not in police service.
