JIm,

You need to extensively photograph all angles of the rig, including all markings, mag bottoms, and all sides of the holster to get even a ballpark opinion.

Jim, welcome to the forum.

In addition to pictures and information; you need to check and see if all the last two of the serial number match. This makes a huge difference in value; but pictures and good description can come first. (numbers on the top of the receiver (date), serial number, proofs and acceptance, etc)
