Angry 1941 Police Holster

This came as a complete Rig, the holster is in really nice shape, but the gun was left literally under a seat in a truck. As a fun gun to show others, matching holster, gun and loading tool, but not to show off!

Anyway, this is my question, The Banner is a 1942, at the very beginning of a run for some police guns, its serial number is 2334y but the holster is a 1941, (A Fischer Berlin C2 1941).

The holster (which I tried to take pictures of the date and manufacturer, but my scanner can't see it).

Did holsters get sent to the Mauser factory and placed with the gun, or more likely were holsters "matched" when issued with a gun at the Police supply or issuing location???
