Luger Storage

A leather holster is a VERY poor choice!~ The tanning acids in the leather will eventually damage your gun's finish. Even a regular holster will leave portions of the gun exposed to the air and moisture.
A good gun rug or foam lined case, stored in a dry, temperature stable area are the best bets.

Coat your gun with Rig or other quality moisture displacing oil before placing it in the rug or case and your gun should be safe.
