Leather Drum Carrier

If there were any leather carriers there would be surviving examples just like
all the other associated leather holsters belts etc.... But no examples are known...
it would have been a logical choice in the 1920's for police use with the Bergman
But none are know ..... Also if you study period photo's only the canvas carriers
are seen .... No leather carriers are seen in photos ....

Makes sense. They were already "short" on leather and a leather carrier is way more labor intensive than a cloth "bag". JMHO.
