To my eye it looks like 2 identical pouches on each end of belt. I dont think one ever carries two whistles.
The split & sprung look I agree is unusual. Cant fathom what it would be for myself. Appears to be for tubular containers with possible front projection lower down? carried 2 at a time.... Internal dimesions of the "holsters" would help add to the equation perhaps? Spiral |

Hi Kronckew and Spiral,
Thanks guys for joining me on this puzzle! I always love a good mystery, but honestly dont know enough about firearms paraphenalia of the period to know what kind of items might have been held in these pouches. Ward, looking forward to the measurements. It is interesting that whatever was held in these duplicate pouches came obviously in two. All best regards, Jim |
