A question about a 1917 artillery with sheepskin

pigskin is pigskin and you can see little holes on the other side of the leather. pebbled is just a texture added by some mechanical pressing method to give the finished leather some surface other than smooth.

Ben, are you discussing the Artillery or Nagant holster? If it is the Nagant, I can assure that this is a textile, not real leather.
