[lugerholsterrepair]

colcolombo, What a load of horse hocky! Made on original equiptment! What, a sewing machine? These people make me laugh...There is no original equipment and more than that there are many details that make the difference as to quality fit and finish. Next they will have resurrected an old World Sadler and claim he is back making them again...

I have found none of the repro makers of P-08 holsters come near the quality of original holsters for many reasons. This does not necessarily make them bad since the price could hardly hurt you all that much. I have said it before and probably will many more times though, you would be much better off with the worst original than a new, made in Pakistan repro. They are hard on a pistol when inserted as they are stiff and unbending, rubbing the blue off at an alarming rate. Generally they do not fit, too small. They have no history and have bogus markings on them. The stitching is cotton or nylon, not linen.

So I won't get torched I will say they would be OK if you found one that would actually fit for taking to the range or re-inactment purposes. It would be a shame to roll around in the dirt with an original German Luger holster.

Unfortunately I have not discovered a Company that makes a holster worth a hoot. Thor seem to like the Police he got so I assume it must be Ok as he is very knowledgable about this sort of thing. I think it could be a crap shoot and if I were buying a repro holster I would want to inspect it in person to see if it would satisfy my somewhat finiky tastes. That's just me though....Jerry Burney
