Opinion sought on 1939 holster

beeman · 03-20-2007, 11:52 PM

I recently ran across a listing for a PO-8 holster that is stated as 1939 dated and WaA proofed (on back). It also states the belt loops were replaced and that there are 4 small holes that are filled on the back...maybe it was riveted as a repair? I'm looking for opinions re: originality, authenticity, etc...if someone recognizes this holster as their listing, don't take offense! I'm rather new to Luger collecting and have found this forum to be a font of knowledge...and thanks, now I am addicted to Lugers...as if my Civil War through Korean War weapons collection wasn't addictive enough!

Thanks in advance, Beeman.
