matching luger and holster date fact or fiction

So I would just try and buy one that is the same year, or years before. It appears to me that Lugers could have been issued to someone, in 1944 / 45 and with holsters from before then. But a captured 1915, would need a holster from that time period. But unless you know that the pistol was issued / reissued in 1944 and the holster is from 1938 (even tho the pistol is a 1934 / 1914 or whatever).


I am like Lonnie, given a choice, I would prefer one closest to the year manufactured.
