Pete, Nice find...I believe it might be an early reproduction....The top leather looks a little strange, the striations on it. The closure button on the cleaning rod sleeve is too fat and round. Original Artilleries do not look like this one. The stock block should be sewn differently in the center. There was much variation on this but I have never seen one sewn like this one. The ears on the top of the cleaning rod pouch are not sewn as would be proper. BUT, This is a very nice looking holster and if it does prove to be a copy, it is a well made one. It has many features that are nicely done. I would like to see the inside.
