Walther PP Holster

**Tomasz70** · 09-13-2014, 07:19 PM

Gentlemen, this is my recent purchase. According to "Military holsters of World War II" (Eugene J Bender) and "German Pistols and Holsters, 1934-1945: Military, Police, NSDAP" (Col. Robert D. Whittington III) it should be Walther PP holster third model. (dimentions are similar to those shown in the books). Marking indicate the III Reich police ownership. This type was almost identical to Sauer 38 holster, therefore I had some doubts. What is your opinion as regards the holster? Police Walther PP?

Not necessarily a polizei holster w/o the letter to the right of the swastika.
Any other markings on the holster?

That type of eagle is found on police equipment and in the spine and curve of s84/98 bayonets of police contract however as Sarge points out some of them have the letter C B etc at the right side of wing. Military Waa eagle is different type and followed by the Waa 519 or so for instance. I suspose it could also be a NSDAP holster also I personally would lean toward Police issue I have seen them on holsters not followed by a letter. Nice find timothy

No other markings are visible. The eagle seems to be a police signature, as some letter ("B"?) was stamped on the eagle's breast - just the same as mentioned in the Robert D. Whittington book. You may not observe this, however it can be noticed looking from a different angle.
