1918 Luger Holster

[Ben Evans]

Hi chaps

This just arrived today, a very nice luger holster dated 1918 and made by N Burghard, Pasing. Inside has a unit mark of B.A.XI or clothing issue depot of Cassel. If anyone has any more info ref this mark could you please let me know. There is also a ink mark with R M and ?QMS. So for me I think that is some ones initials and the other bit stand for ? quarter master sergeant. Could be a "U" so could read Unit Quarter Master Sergeant. Again if anyone has any thoughts on this please let me know

Cheers

Brown WWI. Some of these were re-dyed in black for WWII. My Police luger had a 1918 brown holster. It was picked up by the veteran with the luger. I took the 1944 ammo out of the spare magazine when I aquired it. Layed in the top of his closet all these years.
