A complete Navy except for holster.
 
I have a Navy, that is 1st Issue, altered, in pretty nice shape, all matching except the mag. It is worth about $ 4,000 - I believe. Here is the question: I am looking at a 1908, all matching, in excellent shape, with matching mag and matching stock with the connecting webbing and a navy two-mag pouch. It has an excellent bore. What might it be worth? I know: tough question with no pictures. There is even another navy mag with a broken wooden base.
Anybody hazard a guess? I see one like it on Gunbroker with just a non-matching mag for: $ 9,700.
Appreciate even any and every helpful estimate.
Thanks
Jack

Hi Jack,
10k is not unreasonable if it's in nice shape and all genuine, but the sad news is that there are more faked and assembled rigs out there than authentic ones. Ideally you should post photos, but in the meantime send me a PM with your email address, I'll send you a link to the Navy List which lists all known Navies, most with a brief description.
Regards, Norm

Over $10000.What does one add for a matching mag (25% to 50%)?What is the matching stock worth ($3000 to $4500)?

It is number 2238b and is pristine. Purchased from a known collector. Stock is true but unnumbered.Will put up pictures soon.

Looks like the web strap is a US carbine sling, the early kahki version.

It does, but isn't. Even the earliest carbine slings had a "lift the dot" snap closure at one end. This is an early, US khaki utility strap.

That end has been cut off, see the one end has been sewn or riveted to the slide?
But then it could be a utility strap, really doesn't matter either way- it is not original or German.
