Your holster was manufactured by Frost Jahnel, Breslau. The luger looks like blued not strawed to me. Either one can be correct depending on serial number. I have trouble with some serial number suffix's your looks like a w to me. If so blued small parts is correct. The letters and number inside the holster could be Navy? Someone else will need to answer that. The date could well be 1940. There also should be a WaA 182 somewhere in the area of the date. Nice looking luger. Without the gun in hand price estimates are difficult. For insurance purposes I would use $2000. Nice looking luger. Welcome to the Forum. Bill
