10/28/20 - This is an original, fairly scarce variation P.38 holster. The holster is early and well marked on the back leather with a "hjg" maker code and "41" date stamp. Also waffen proofed and P.38 stamped. The leather is strong with minimal wear, but unfortunately someone scratched their name and some other deliberate scratch marks on the front lid. All original stitching is in tact.
