1908 Bulgarian

Heinz makes a very pertinent and apparently important reply to this question. I posed this problem to Michael Krause, always a great fund of information, and he said exactly the same thing as did Heinz. The classic Bulgarian P.08 was found only in early 1908 vintage, or earlier, holsters, as originally issued. Most of those later Bulgarian holsters housed Mauser made WW2 vintage military Lugers. This seems to be a very plausible explanation for all those Bulgarian holsters but so few Bulgarian Lugers.
