Original German WWI Imperial Navy Kaiserliche Marine Pistole 08 Luger Holster With Cleaning Rod

Item Description

Original Items: Only One Available. Beginning in 1904, Lugers were produced in 9mm Parabellum caliber, and acceptance by the German Navy followed. These pistols also employed a coiled mainspring instead of the leaf spring featured on earlier models, a round-topped bolt, and a change in toggle design that allowed it to be lifted rather than pulled rearward. The commercial M06 Luger included a rearward-operating safety lever, and a breech stop that held the action open after the last round in the magazine had been fired. The P08 is undoubtedly the most famous of all Luger pistols. They became the standard German military sidearm in 1908, a distinction they held until the adoption of the Walther P38 prior to the Second World War.

A leather holster for the parabellum was made for transporting and storing from a brown or a black leather. Wooden shoulder stock could be attached to the leather holster with mounting straps and five screws. The leather strap of the leather holster could be attached with a magazine pouch for two magazines. Leather holsters were usually marked with manufacturer's information on the underside of the flap.

This holster is a lovely worn example in an aged black. No stamps or marks can be found on the underside of the top flap but the top bears the Navy “M” markings though it is faint.

The original finish has quite a bit of crazing and cracking present, adding a unique beautiful appearance. The right side of the holster still retains the original threaded cleaning rod with a barrel type wood handle. All stitching is still tight and intact.

This is an excellent opportunity to get an original holster and stock for a Navy Luger that has lost its original ones!
