Hi Kubur.
That's a nice looking Suma rod and cartridge container.
The rod could be from most anywhere, but I'm going to say Ottoman for the moment. What is the overall length of the rod? And the length of the non-grip portion? That might give me a clue.
Cartridge container: I really like the embossing of the two warriors. Very neat. Greek or Turk? Hmmm.......could be either. The Greeks seemed to be fond of using human figures in their decorations. So I'm leaning in that direction.
Great looking set that would go well with a Kubur pistol

Thanks for Posting. Rick.
