Guys, there are no other markings on this Luger other than another "type" of German eagle on the right, forward side of the receiver just after the two with the 63 under them. This same mark is also stamped on the right side of the barrel about 3/8" from the end of the receiver. No import markings. It has wood grips.

The holster still puzzles me-I can tell its been "painted" but not a single thread on the holster has any black color on it. The holster definitely has the 96XXi S/N. Who used black holsters and who used brown in the German military during WWII. Also, what marking would be on a originial magazine for this P-08? Thanks.
