    Colt 1903 General Officer holster rig for 32 cal

    I need help with authenticating a rig.
    It is black leather with the holster, buckle, belt and magazine pouch.

    I need detail of each component. Can't seem to find close up picts of
    the components.

    I got a couple of books but not much help.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Just do a Google search under "General Officers pistol rig" and you will find several photos of the proper rig. One link is below.

    Best to compare against a known original. Most of the copies are built to the same dimensions as the originals, but the devil is in the details.
