WH (Heer) P38 Pistol Holster 'gxy 1944'

WH (Heer)/Waffen-SS P38 Pistol Holster (Pistolentaschen P38). When issued the P38 came with a specific holster to be worn on the left side of the load carrying waist belt. The blackened brown leather construction second pattern soft-shell holster has two belt-loops on the back. The holster body also has a stitched on spare magazine pocket. The softshell holster is nicely marked on the back with 'P38' and maker marked and dated with 'gxy 1944' indicating production by the company 'Lederwarenfabrik Gebr. Klinge' from Dresden-Loebtau in 1944. The leather is still supple. Nice original P38 pistol holster in mint and unissued condition!
