Hello Jerry,

If the holsters are not of goat skin, you might be right that they are made of camel skin and the tanning process was different. One thing for sure - I highly doubt that the leather on the Persian rigs are from a cow which leads to the fact that the rigs were NOT made in Germany. Therefore, my point still stands that these rigs are likely replicas.

Thank you Jerry for your input.

Albert
