Default Pig Skin Luger Holster

Happy New Year Fellow Collectors,

I recently came upon this holster for my collection. I was not aware that pig skin was used to make Luger holsters. Any opinions or history lessons would be appreciated. I can send additional photos if necessary just could not post them here.

Thanks in advance,
Vince

Default Pigskin !!!

Hi Vince! Yes, it was a substitute standard material.. DLU is one of the more prominent, erg is also around but more texture, and bdg (maybe bcg?) and E.G. Luner are the only others I am familier with! Nice holster..... best to you, til...lat'r...GT

This is a super looking pig skin Luger holster.

GT is correct. Makers of Luger pig skin holster are "DLU", "erg", and "bla". There are also many other types of holsters made of pig skin as well though.

Very nice find!
Matt
