A Vintage Leather Belt Holster Designed for the Luger P08

The Luger P08 Vintage Leather Belt Holster is a belt-mounted open-carry holster designed specifically for the distinctive profile of the Luger P08 pistol. Drawing from early European military and civilian holster styles, this holster emphasizes secure belt carry, proper firearm fit, and period-correct presentation rather than modern concealment features.

Its construction and layout reflect traditional leather holster designs intended for reliable everyday carry during the early 20th century.

Historical Use Context
