Original Item. Only One Available. This is a gorgeous Post-WWI manufactured Luger police holster, manufactured by A. Fischer - Berlin C.2. This example is a sunburst pattern, of the 1929-1936 period, this one in particular being dated 1929. There is a Police unit marking on the back, L. AR.  127. 1456. L. indicates being assigned to Landjaegerei (rural constabulary), and Ar. indicates the Arnsberg district.

The holster is in fantastic condition and even has a wooden Luger magazine in the spare magazine pouch meant to continue giving it its shape. The wooden magazine was dated 2009 by its maker, a really nice touch. The securing strap is still fully retained on the holster. The take-down tool slot is present but there is no tool. Both belt loops are intact and complete. The holster has the style of closure used on police and artillery Luger holsters. This was a bit easier to open in a hurry, and did not require a buckle.

A really nice holster that will complete any WWI-WWII Era P08 Luger pistol. Ready to display or use!

The Pistole Parabellum—or Parabellum-Pistole (Pistol Parabellum), commonly known as just Luger—is a toggle-locked recoil-operated semi-automatic pistol which was produced in several models and by several nations from 1898 to 1948. The design was first patented by Georg Luger as an improvement upon the Borchardt Automatic Pistol and was produced as the Parabellum Automatic Pistol, Borchardt-Luger System by the German arms manufacturer Deutsche Waffen und Munitionsfabriken (DWM). The first production model was known as the Modell 1900 Parabellum. Followed by the "Marinepistole 1904" for the Imperial German Navy. The later versions included the popular "Parabellum Pistole Modell von 1908" or simply "P08" (Pistole 1908) which was produced by DWM and other manufacturers such as W+F Bern, Krieghoff, Simson, Mauser, and Vickers. The first Parabellum pistol was adopted by the Swiss army in May 1900. 1904 they were adopted by the German Navy. In German Army service, it was adopted in slightly modified form as the Pistole Modell 1908 (Pistole 08) in caliber 9×19mm Parabellum. The Model 08 was eventually succeeded by the Walther P38.

The Luger is well known from its use by Germans during World War I and World War II, along with the interwar Weimar Republic and the postwar East German Volkspolizei. The P.08 was introduced in 7.65mm Parabellum, though it is notable for being the pistol for which the 9×19mm Parabellum cartridge was developed, also known as the 9×19mm Luger. The pistol has been used in fictional works by many villainous characters over the past several decades because of its association with AH's Germany.
