Default Re: Holster value goes up because they are

Joe,


The Russians did ho;d onto the P.38 holsters. There are many of these in NEW condition on the market today and the price is almost the same as the used holsters. The P,38 holster were supposed to have been new ones that were found in warehouses and the Russians kept them. I can see this actually happening, bur since Luger production stopped in 1942, the large scale production of these stopped. I would think this is reason there are not any coming from Russia. The Germans used all that were made and at the ward end they were thrown away????? Just my thought on this.


The Norwegians did keep all the Luger holsters that were turned in by the German troops when the war ended and used them. The only problem here is that they cut the belt loops off and installed a GI type hook. These are on the market today and in very nice condition. They usually sell in the $75-100 range. The first one I saw and bought was what I though to be a GI conversion, but soon after I learned they were Norewegian conversions. A nice deal if you want a good holster for you shooter.
