Mike, You have an example of what most of our members would dearly love to find. From what I could see it certainly looks authentic in every respect. The holster is undamaged and seems to be in great shape.

I would say that the pistol inserted into the holster is incorrect. The strap shown over the top of the pistol is the lifting strap and is used to lift the pistol so it can be easily grasped by the user. This strap should go under the pistol as it is inserted into the holster.

Also the nickle buckles found on the back of the stock on the straps are not proper and should be removed. I could not see from the photo's if you are missing the steel attaching studs that hold and adjust the straps but that might be why someone attached these buckles.

Depending on some things that I cannot see but might be there and interest me and a closer inspection as to actual condition, I would place a value somewhere between $3500 and $4500 for this very nice complete Artillery rig. Congratulations if you are the owner! Jerry Burney
