Artillery Rig?

[FNorm]

Lugatdoc, et al: I'm new to all of this. Just picked up my first Lugars at sort of an an estate sale. Guy's business needed $$ and he says he got these from his father-in-law. He was selling all his guns, some M1 carbines, a Garand, w/ jeep scabbard, etc. So I picked up two, then later went back for another. The best of the lot is a 1920's commercial in 7.65, just about mint. Straw, etc. And the 1917 artillery, But it has been re-blued. Reconditioned?? I also got a bunch of other loose stuff. Some magazines, two tools, spare handgrips, etc.

So I bought two holsters through Numrich. Dunno the supplier. Working on this artillery and figuring out how to rig it, I thought it strange that the stock hadn't been drilled for the screws. I conditioned/softened the holsters with Fiebing's Care- 4. I also have a leather hobby and hate the smell of Lexol. This stuffs better. For deeper or damaged leather use the same brand only saddle oil.

Anyway, I digress. I got two tools with the whole mess, and figured I'd put those in the holster pouches. Noticed that one had a number on it. It matched the 1920 commercial! Light bulbs went off! The number on the stock also matched the commercial! Possible? or a happy accident?
