Repost: Holster Mark ?

[Robert Wiggins]

This is a repost for those who may not have seen it.


I have a P08 holster which has a marking I have been trying to identify for some time. I offer pictures here for those who consider themselves knowledgeable in the field.


Hopefully someone will be able to identify the mark and possibly offer clues to the manufacturer of the holster.


The mark is on the top left side of the holster where the butt of the P08 would be located, and is covered when the holster flap is down (closed). There are no other markings on the holster. It is definitely a purposely applied stamp of some sort. It is well defined in the leather. I know the holster has not been tampered with as it came home with my father from WWII. He obtained it in Holland directly from a German Lieutenant who surrendered.


The fact that the Holster contained a Mauser 42 may not be of significance but if you wish further details on the P08 see my entry in the "Owners Corner".


Any help would be appreciated.
