The (very) small pics in the revelatory article about Rabensburg,

http://test.mwca.org/test/wp-content...A_Bulletin.pdf
(starts on page 10)

are of two holsters made for its author in the 1950s (article late 2000s) and I had put them under a glass on my monitor, trying to make out what is on the cuffs. So I already knew the basic outline of the elongated oval with the three initials centred inside (I'm deducing those of the author and his brother, for whom Rabensburg made the pair of holsters). And so the large picture in the Gun Digest article hit me right between the eyes on a second review of it!

I've yet another feeler out to the author of this article, who is still alive and well
