George,
Yah, the stock may be European walnut but modern construction. It looks out-of-the-box new.
The holster is interesting. The straps look aged as does the cup. But the washers and maybe the screws look Home Depot. Would like to take a real look at the holster and its markings. A closer look might make all the leather the real buy. I can't tell from the pictures.
I agree that the toggle train looks good. But that is a flat surface that is easy for a decent restorer to deal with. May be original considering the wear around the side of the extractor and the wear around the edges numbers. But I will keep my mouth shut with any comment. Too many other things to comment on. I would like to hear Russ's comments after he personally sees it. The pictures are just too fuzzy.
