Real Tool Pouch, Or Not...?

A goof on my part. The translation for the paragraph on page 152 should be "brass cleaning tool" and not "brass cleaning rod". Putzzeug should have been translated the same as in the second section. Given that, it would appear that the pouch was indeed designed/issued to hold the cleaning tool. What remains unclear is whether it was ever "issued" for the Luger or just carried over from earlier revolver issue and kept around by some of the "old officers".
