The vast majority of all WWI & WWII German military leather goods were made with calf skin. Pig skin items are quite rare. In 1915 MARS in Berlin made a small number of pebble grain artillery holsters. The most common of these are pebble grain calf with damn few made of pig skin like the holster offered here for sale.
