US Luger Holster Making~
It seem not much is written about very earlier holsters. First the 1000 Test Holsters, they were models at the Rock Island arsenal. Were any other Luger Holsters made in the US? Eric

If you mean military made holsters, there would have been no need.
If you mean commercial holsters, yes.

Thank You, totally commercial. I'm sure the 1908 and earlier navy there had to be specs! I was wondering the earler commercial, I have a few that I have posted and wondered if there were regulations for commercial., I've got a few early commercial that I want to match up! Basically were the Military the same as commercial? TKS

Military, by far. Unless there is some compelling historical context or rarity to the commercial holster.
