I found the thread with the holster.
Both, the 2. and the 16. Bavarian Inf. Reg. build the 2. Bavarian Infanterie Brigarde. It was common that regiments of an Inf. Brig. gave parts of theit equipment if an reserve regiment was made (terrible English again). That´s the thing with the holster.

The names of the Oberbürgermeister could be found in the regiments histories under following conditions: if they died in action or were woundet; if they got a honor (Eiserne Kreuz erster oder zweiter Klasse). I´m sure das the former owner of the P08 was an officer. So you would find his name on several pages of the regiment history.

I hope I could answer your question.

Best regards Klaus
