The 1911A1 main spring housing has a lanyard loop that was made for a "Clip " style lanyard attachment. The P08 seems to have been designed for " Strap" from the onset. A man would use his pistol as a hammer if he needed to, it was just a G.I. tool. Combat pistols need a lanyard attachment. Since I currently work for a man that restores Mercedes Benz 300 SLs from then early 50's, I understand one reason why the Germans lost WW II. Their approach to a design idea is often over engineered (artistically indeed) and needs many special or modified tools to do even simple maintenance.
