Swiss Luger Holster

Hello postino!
Judging by period pictures these holsters were worn on the left-forward side of the body, in the German (P08, P38 etc.) style. There is however an interesting picture on one of the small Datig's books which shows Swiss Mountain Troops on skis with their Parabellum 1906/29 holsters all worn on the rear-left of the body... I can't imagine how they could quickly draw the pistol in an emergency situation...
