Hi Ben,
* I know how exciting it is to have a "first" Luger. Congratulations. I thank you for sharing it with us.
* I know too the excrutiating ache to know "All about IT" after taking pictures and planning on what to say/ask in posting for info. I trust you will be amazed at the work done by Joop through the URL's provided by Pete.
* As for Jerry, he's probably just frustrated he can't have time to properly tell you all about the holster you've pictured. And ask a kazillion questions of you about it as well. Being technically inclined like Jerry, I'm often reminded how a quality, factual answer takes far more time than it takes to ask an innocent question. As Ed has noted, there are some differences from the norm we are use to seeing on your "eue". OBTW, the WaA300 is the Army Inspector's mark for the holster. Is it stamped P.08 on the L/H back as well?
* As for markings to look for: Do you notice any markings on the R/H side of the receiver, R/H side of the barrel near the root, or top L/H side of the barrel?? I also would look at the Mag(s) body(s)/plug(s) for acceptance stamps, numeral, and letters. By chance, are they matching numbered mags??
* Hope this helps...and again, welcome.
Respectfully,
Bob
