Sure George, that's it. I couldn't find a picture of the officer's kokarde but I thought that's what it might be. Since I only collect "hard hats" (pickelhauben) I don't know too much about the soft variety.
Thanks Jerry, I was wondering if it might be a commercial because of the cleaning rod pouch. Couldn't think of any WWI service or country that had this holster's combination of color and pattern.
I think for the new comer, a general rule might be that any piece of hardware insignia added to a holster decreases its value. Can anyone think of any exceptions?
