Hello Thorston,
I have bought my Turkish arty holster one year ago. I have paid it around 500 euros.
The Turkish holster I have bought is well know among collectors because has been introduced in several articles on the French magazine "La Gazette des Armes". I have also shown it in my book. Some others pictures are available in my web site.
Ciao
Mauro

I am not so expert in the Navy field. In general the WWI Turkish holsters are very rare. In fact during WWI the Turkish army didn't employ the parabellum. These holsters were made for Turkish Officers or High Dignitary that hold a parabellum. At the end of WWI the German advisors left Turkey and several parabellums were left in Turkey and used by Turkish army.
Ciao
