This kind of holster/stock was used together with the 1912-1913 LP08 pre-production. It was possible to put this stock in a particular pig-skin holster produced by Eugen Huber Militaryeffecten located in Berlin.

This stock solution was not retained and the rig we currently know was approved for issue.

A reproduction of this stock/holster is now sold by the german Transarms for about 590 Euros.
You can have a look at my web site and also at my book that describes in detail the pre-production LP08 and relevant accessories.
Happy 2004.
Ciao
