Ibrahiim's post on gun belts reminded me of how few images of these types of once very common items there are available to see online. Here is one that is supposed to be from India, maybe someone has other images of gun belts that they can post.

Hi Estcrh !! That is a really nice set. Looks Indian to me too. And in nice condition. The stich work is really nice.
Here is an Afghan Kamar Belt I just purchased from Ebay. I was the only bidder. So got it cheap. Looks to be in good, complete condition with both powder and priming horns. It's on the way to me from the UK and should receive it sometime next week. I'll Post better pics after I receive it. This will make a nice addition to the Jazail I just purchased that I just Posted elsewhere. Rick.

Hi Estcrh, Lots of Similarities between yours and this one Tirri says They're Afghanistani if, I'm recalling correctly. Steve

Rick, very nice and your lucky no one else (like me) saw it on ebay, I knew there must be a few members with gun belts. I have looked online but there are very few images available.
