Well, after extensive research I have found out that the holster is actually a very rare Luger pigskin holster. I have searched out the correct holster to match my pistol and hope to make a deal soon. I had originally planned to just sell the pistol, but it is pretty cool part of history and I am a frequent visitor to the P38 and Walther forums. Looking at PPs and PPKs now...sheesh, just what I need, another firearm to obsess over!

They really have a wonderful balance and I love shooting them. Can't wait for a range report.

Not sure if I'll take it to the range Sir Henry. This pistol is all original, serial number matching. IF something should break and I have to replace a part then it goes from a $1200-$1500 collector to a $600 shooter...not sure I wanna take that chance.
