Many thanks for your warm welcome and for all those "must to know" informations ! This is no more amateurism but professionalism !...
Following your informations, I will take it apart again (and take care with the grips)and search all those details. As you said it the grip is brown plastic and has the W+F logo on it. The year 1940 matches the holster date !
Maybe I could bring you some info too: On the back of the holster, between the belt straps it is written :
A VOLKEN
SATTLER
FLÃ??ELEN
40

And I found here in Switzerland an Alois (Arnold) Volken, "Sattlerei und Bettwaren" (Saddler and holster maker) with the address : Axenstrasse 32, 6454 FlÃ?Â¼elen URI Switzerland. A phone number if you would be interrested 0041 41 870 3148. I believe Arnold is the father's name who build the holster for my Luger !

Here are some pictures and I just fount out I missed the one with the Swiss cross "Ecusson" ontop and which was one of the main reason I bought This one !

Please find here the WaffenFabrik Stampel :

The Serial number with Colonel Muhlemann proof (as you can see it differs from the one you showed...):

The barrel proof :

And the P stampel allowing a public sale. Just under is the famous Stylized P on the Mag (with lip)

I'll make some more pictures soon... And again, many thanks and best regards. Robby <img src="graemlins/wave.gif" border="0" alt="[byebye]" />
