I do not have that code listed, but, I deal only with the P38 holsters, so that is not hard to figure.

The holster is for the CZECH .380 MODEL 38. The Nazi designation for that gun was P39(T). The model was rubber stamped inside the flat. The holster was made in 1941 and accepted by the local WaffenAmt.

See Axis Pistol by Jan Still....Page64-64

Jan says 44,000 were procured. It is currently believed that most of them were given to the Finnish troops by the Nazis.

Because it is a 9x17 and NOT a 9x19, the P38 mag does not fit unless the stitching is ripped..
