Look on the back with a strong light and you might find inked or etched information such as OP, AS or MP which would indicate Official Police, Army Special or Military & Police. It looks like a 6" barrel. You can feel where the cylinder ends inside the holster and measure for the barrel size. It is a very fine unusual Heiser
