Luger Like Finland P38 holster

Dear Tracy/Robert - apropos the comment that some Finnish UN personnel were issued with the P.38. I spent much of the 70's in Cyprus, where we were regularly thrashed in shooting competitions by both the Swedish and Finnish UN contingents with their Husqvarna/Lahti issue weapons. At least in Cyprus I never saw anything else. The tables were turned when we got the chance to shoot their pistols snd they had to shoot ours - then we thrashed them. Out pistol was the venerable Browning HP35, or as we called it, simply the Browning.

regards
