If I remember well, I got it from Bugpiper on ebay (Belfast, UK) some 20 years ago.
"A very good "used" condition, British Army issue Queen's Own Highlanders (Seaforths & Camerons) horse hair sporran as worn by Other Ranks (O/Rs) in No. 1 and No. 2 Dress. This item is made of black horse hair and has 2 white horse hair tassels. This sporran has a large gussetted pocket to the rear, a chromed white metal cantle and bears a genuine staybrite (anodised aluminium) Queen's Own Highlanders (Seaforths & Camerons) sporran badge. This pattern of sporran was worn by The Queen's Own Highlanders (Seaforths & Camerons) from their formation in 1969 up until their amalgamation with The Gordon Highlanders in 1994. After 1994, the newly formed Regiment, The Highlanders (Seaforth, Gordons & Camerons) continued to wear this pattern of sporran up until their absorbtion into The Royal Regiment of Scotland in 2006."
It's now back to Scotland, its new owner lives in Glenrothes.
