SARGE Posted August 2, 2025 Author #28 Posted August 2, 2025 I wanted to add this list of known makers of Police belt buckles that was provided by Gwar on another thread. BTW Gwar, I just picked up a nice Police NCO buckle with a black leather tab dated 1942 and made by "R. Sieper & Sohne" by injection molding. Posted June 26, 2022 Sarge, sorry for the late reply, the book we are working on takes a toll sometimes, to answer a few questions, most tabbed buckles (if not a re-stich or field fix, ie, mis-matched) should be the correct maker of the buckle, (S.S. Buckles were NEVER made with tabs). Buckles sewn to the belt (brocades) were probably manufactured with separate components (Fabric maker) and sold by the Hersteller under the buckle maker.. Depending on the regulations the RZM controlled the process in which most TR items were produced, including buckles, although, the RZM didn't control the RAD, so ANY RAD buckle with a 'RZM' marking should be considered a fake, here is the known list of Police buckle makers, which includes the usual suspects. M4/19 Ernst Schneider, Lüdenscheid M4/22 Christian Theodor Dicke, Ludensheid M4/24 Friedrich Linden, Lüdenscheid M4/27 Overhoff & Cie, Lüdenscheid M4/28 Paulmann & Crone, Lüdenscheid M4/30 Berg & Nolte, Lüdenscheid M4/34 Nordwall & Welschehold, Dransfeld & Co, Menden M4/38 Richard Sieper & Söhne, Lüdenscheid M4/39 F W.
