JL, if what I've read in the past is true, many holsters of WW1 vintage were used during WW2. Some were dyed black just as your holster has been while some remained the original brown color of WW1 issue. I'm sure there are collectors on this forum who can give you more definitive information but unless you have some other reason to suspect forgery, your holster is likely authentic.
