Artillery Luger photo

Nice,

The way he carries his LP08 is interesting. He wears his normal belt over the LP08 loops. This means he is unable to attach the holster/stock to the pistol quickly this way. But looking at his somewhat dated (and thickish) head, I think he's not too much of a front line soldier

LP08's were often secured under the belt as in this photo but with stock attached. It is much more comfortable walking if the belt secures the rig to ones side. I think that stocks were rarely attached to the pistol as a last minute combat expediency but rather well before encounters with the enemy were anticipated.
