I tend to agree with Jerry's speculation that it might be a form used during holster fabrication. No need to have a real gun lying around in a leather shop... someone might run off with it when no one is looking... or maybe even load it...

So what would we call it in English... how about a GO or No-GO gauge for a Luger holster? If it goes in the holster then it doesn't have to be stretched or shaped any further... but if it doesn't then the holster get's chucked into the scrap parts pile...

Whatyathink?
