Help with 1936 Holster ID

Mike,

You got it at a bargain price. The going rate is 70 - 150 Euros over here.
I purchased two holsters for 70 each at a recent show and they needed quite some TLC to clean up to an acceptable standard, there were nice holsters underneath the crud.

Some people choose to have them restored, but I believe that restoring them by adding loops and plugging the rivetholes makes them neither one nor the other. The Norwegian variation is a genuine, documented variation and has it's place in history, although many still curse them for ruining perfectly good German holsters
