Special SA hanger for the saddle - Wehrmacht-Awards.com Militaria Forums

Hello!

I asked this question many times, but nobody was able to help me.

I'm looking for a photo of the special SA hanger/frog (I don't know the correct translation) for the saddle.
It is listed in the RZM pricelist from 1938 and I found a period photo, but it seems nobody has such a hanger in his collection.

Maybe somebody can help me?

Thanks!
Christian

Very interesting picture. I've never seen this hanger set up before. Perhaps custom made???
Anyways thanks for sharing a great picture

I've never seen anything like this before either, must not have been something that was utilized often. Very cool image though, as they say, a picture is worth 1000 words.

Can't help you with the hanger itself, but I have a very similar picture.

Thank you very much for the answers and of course the nice photo! Interesting to see something similar!!

The hangers can of course be custom made, but there must be an offical variant as well. Otherwise it would not be listed in the RZM price list.

I hope this helps some what it may not be a SA one, but it sure is a start.

I think Gailen has it backwards--that's a bugle or hunting horn carrier, not a sword hanger.
Those Reiter photos are great--I knew there was a dagger frog/ carrier for the Reiter SA but had never seen photos until now. Thanks!
