Photos For Dante...

Pete, Dante is on the right track. Having made a number of these in my career I can tell you this is because the measurements were not taken correctly. The front of the holster is made, cast or molded then cut ...It is more or less a fixture. Making a Luger holster starts at the magazine pouch and ends where you see this small step. If the front body has been cut a mite too short there is no stretching it. If one wants to end up with a holster you must do without. I have seen this occasionally on some of the many holsters I get to observe in the course of my work. I last saw it recently on an Artillery holster. An apprentice worker making this mistake is as good a guess as any...Jerry Burney
