Holster Question
Was wondering if I could get some info on this holster. Only markings I can see are on the back. To the left of the WA mark is a very light 1942 stamping also their is something stamped above the numbers but can't quite make it out. Looks like a OW or CW. I've attached a few scans any info would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.. Jeffery |

What is the WaA number? I can't read it from the photo. Karl Weiss code was CWW. The WaA should be 280,392 or 750 according to my reference. It also looks like someone dyed the inside black? Also no PO8 on the back? Bill

The entire holster has been dyed, somewhat reducing its value.

Thanks for the replies appreciated.
The numbers look to be 185 hard to make out and no P08 on the back. |

Looking at the details, I would have to agree with Klaus; it is a "distressed" reproduction, worth about $25-$30.
