Question Unusual Gunbelt and holster RCAF

Ok gents, Do I have one for YOU!

SO, I have this gunbelt and holster. It looks western in styling, brown. That is where the simplicities end.

The buttons, all of which are gold plated it would appear, say RCAF, and have an eagle and a crown.

I have been told that it was part of the uniform for the RCAF Cavalry? My grandfather was apparently a member. (I am waiting for a chance to ask him for more details)

Has anyone seen this before? because last I checked the Canadian air force doesn't fly horses.

Thanks
