Well, more or less.
There is a name written on one of the grips that is fading, Hangen Yoelen(?) He is more than likely the first issued the Luger. I could not find any evidence of his name on the holster.
The Luger was mfr'd 1931(as per Pete) and holster mfr'd 1914 (date stamp), so it was made with a DWM1906 in mind, they probably were not originally issued together.
In the second post of this thread, if one compares the name written on the flap of the holster and the name written on the grip, they appear to be in the same hand.
So...as Herr Anton Zeder, gbr '07 would have been 52/3 in 1960 when the Luger was privatized, that seems about right. The provenance is acceptable to me.
