Alphabet Commercial Holster
Fellows
What kind of holster would be appropriate for an alphabet commercial luger that is not marked military or special order...just a run of the mill gun? Did the Germans export/offer any sort of holster for commercial guns? |

Is it marked GERMANY or not?
An Alphabet Commercial without the marking would not have been exported to the US. The Germans were not big on custom holsters, any military-style without markings would be appropriate. If you can find one from Albricht Kind marked AkAh tht would be good, AK was a major maker and dealer of commercial P08 holsters. A GERMANY marked pistol was explicitly a U.S. marketed pistol. Americans have always been big on custom holsters, so any holster from a U.S. maker would work. The most common holsters re cheap flap-style holsters with a decorative edge stamp. These were sold by virtually any sporting goods, hardware, or dry-goods store. Custom manufacturers such as H.H.Heiser, Eubanks, several other manufacturers. They could be had plain or with any amount of decorative carving. --Dwight... ..hmmm, email me please, dwightg600@gmail.com ... |

Thanks, Dwight
My alphabet gun is marked 'Germany" on the right side of the upper.
Very good shooter. I was wondering if the Germans exported holsters to the US, along with the guns. |

No, holsters were not exported along with the guns.
