Two Lugers: S/42 1936 and 1937

None of the 1936 Mausers had the Mauser bump. This started during the 1937 production. Sorry about your holster but it is a poor repro. Normal to have faked dates manufacturers etc. Look at pictures of original WW2 holsters ,especially the back, and you will see the issues. Hope you did not pay much for this. These sell on eBay for under $40. We have all been there during our early collecting days. Part of the luger tuition. Buy all the books you can afford and study study study. And then you will still make mistakes. Happy collecting Bill
