Description
New Made Item: High quality reproduction holster for the German Naval P-04 Luger with six-inch barrel. Later style holster is constructed of brown top-grain leather with heavy white stitching, steel fixtures and spare magazine pocket. It has internal pockets and straps for take down tool and cleaning rod. Features a buckle down hard shell flip top like later WWII style Luger holsters, and belt loops on the back.
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.
