Don is correct. The Luger is a rework by the Waffen-Werk depot at Magdeburg. Marked "Eagle/Mg10" on back of frame. Many depots had different markings, and different locations.

The holster was made at this depot as well. These holsters are not rework holsters! The "E/Mg10" markings is the inspectors proof from the depot.
Depot rework holsters are an entirely different subject matter. We can start a thread on those too if anyone cares to?

I've studied these holsters for a very long time, as depot/rework items are really fascinating to me. I have several holsters from several of these, and seen dozens more.

I've attached photos of another Depot made holster. This one is by Waffen-Werkstatt depot at Hannover, and is marked "Ww.Hr" and proof marked "Hr.5"
