I've never been able to sell off any 'extras' and make money/break even...Except once: I sold the hardtop off my '58 Vette to a police officer for $100 and bought a ragtop assembly for $75...I had to rent a drill and buy a wood bit and some bolts to install the ragtop...so I came out even...

James -

A 'rig' is the pistol, holster, maybe a belt, cleaning rod, etc...

I'm basing my response on just the pistol, and it being 30 cal - I agree with Jerry: Crown over "N" is a commercial proof, used on 30 cal Lugers primarily...(or so I'm told)...

Stick a #2 pencil eraser first in the muzzle...if it goes in all the way and is a sloppy fit, it's 9mm; if it sticks at the metal band, it's 30 cal...
