Belt w/bucke w/tab and holster, vet pickup.

11-28-2009, 05:16 PM

Ran into a old vet at a gunshow this morning, and he was carrying this rig around.
The belt had been shortened when he picked it up. There was some kind of pin/medal stuck in the luger holster flap, he could not remember what it was. Someone had beaten him to the luger, but left the belt and buckle with the holster and a mag. Sooooo I bought the outfit from him and here are the pics...

There was a Christian Th. Dicke of Ludenscheid who made buckles.
