Dwight, A lot depends on the quality of the rig. If you can see it in person you may want to try fitting the pistol into it. Fit the pistol to the stock. Make sure it all goes together as you should expect. Then check for the accuracy of the smaller details. Does the pull-up strap knot look as it should? Are the ears of the tool rod pouch the correct diameter and thickness? See if a loading tool will fit in the pouch. Check to see it is positioned correctly. Look at the stock block to see if it is in the right place and fits the stock and straps. Look at the stitching to see if it is cotton or linen, should be linen. The metal studs for closures should be hammered on. Just take a really critical look at this if you are going to spend that kind of money on it. I have seen quite a few repro Artillery and Navy rigs that I would not have for any price. Many would not hold a pistol as they were too small. A repro Navy stock just sold on Ebay. Or is still on auction, I forget. Use that as some sort of reference. Good Luck! Jerry Burney
