Heck, if a regular belt/hip holster were what you wanted, I'd see if Jerry would make you a mini P.08 style! I read here that he's made them for baby actual Lugers. Never saw a pic, but I hear they are sweet.

If you can hook up with a leather worker you can work with, and know specifically what your criteria are, you might consider a custom job. That way, you'll get exactly what you need/want. I'd never even think of reaching for anything in LEO presence. Such movements risk a lead shampoo. Once someone with training gets into "muscle memory" mode, all deliberation is at an end. And it has happened.

BTW, I own almost a dozen Erma Luger-wannabes. The earlier ZAMAK models are definitely glitchy, so I'm passing on those mostly-steel-free 60s examples and concentrating on the KGPs like yours and the slightly larger KGP69s. I have some spare parts, FYI. If you're going to shoot this much, consider chamfering the leading corners of the extractor where they have a tendency to snag the receiver's extractor cut on the way into it and get tossed into the stratosphere, along with their tiny springs and plungers.
