Original Japanese WWII Officer Private Purchase .30cal Commercial Luger Holster MP 44 The black paint on theOriginal Item: One of a Kind. As with much of the world, the officers of the Imperial Japanese Army would purchase their own firearms for use in the field. They often preferred smaller pistols, and might often purchase imported antiques from earlier in the 20th century. It wasn't uncommon for them to equip German Mauser C 96 Pistols, Belgian FN 1900s, German Lugers, Colt 1903 pistols, and so forth. This is a very nice Japanese made private purchase
