1937 WaA14 Holster

AR-50A1 · 08-09-2011, 02:31 AM

Hi All,

I have a Luger holster that I have not been able to identify its manufacturer. The maker's mark looks be be a cursive L with another letter next to it.

I had Jerry Burney do his 'magic' on the belt loops and I asked him about it but he couldn't identify the mark. He did, however, do a beautiful job repairing the belt loops!

Anyone have a idea who made it?

Thanks for your time.

Well, if Jerry had it in his shop and could look at it with a loop, I am unsure if we can. However, I recommend you take a very clear, macro picture, then post it here.

It does not blow up big enough to tell.

And would / should it be a 3 digit code by this time period?
