Hello and welcome.

As I far as I can tell XRH fought in Italy in the latter part of the war, both as a tank regiment but also dismounted as infantry. So I guess just normal Italian campaign uniforms (if there was any such thing in Italy!) - wool Battle Dress when it was cold, lighter weight stuff when it wasn't.

I have absolutely no idea what webbing dismounted tank crews wore when operating as infantry though, standard 37 pattern with tankers drop leg holsters??

Plenty of advice available on the specific British forums.

Good luck with your project!

Cheers
Martin

Yes the revolver is quite easy to find but the holster can be expensive for what it is if you can find one.
I also have the revolver but with a standard holster as I could not warrant the money they command.
