** I.d'd enlisted saddles are rare birds. Really cool "if true" but I have no reason to doubt its veracity.

What are your thoughts on this second one? CW officer's private purchase, post war modification or both? Comments?

Just having fun....

I would say that the second has had some post war modifications due to the lack of any kind of military hardware on it (I.E. Mortice plates, footman's loops, and rings).
