1939 Berlin "Odd" Holster?

Hi, Welcome to the forum. Jerry Burney is our resident leather expert and I expect he will weigh in soon. It looks to me as if this holster has a replacement flap, which would explain the missing tool pouch. Also, the front of the holster has been cut down, eliminating the pull strap. Presumably this was done in the interest of a "fast draw". Evidently not fast enough for the original owner! Regards
