Can you tell if it has the action back? Hard to tell from the pics.

Construction method and cut. The label looks original.I'd definitely go for it if it were in my size

I can proxy for you if you are really interested in it. This is a nice keeper. This label was made for the law enforcement community. That shop was full of top-of-the-line goodies.

The seller said it was a 19-pit-to-pit.

He obviously does not know how to measure p2p. Shoulder width is 20 inches, p2p cannot be 19....

That measure could very well be taken with the jacket unzipped. I think they just plopped the jacket on the ground and took some random measures. But you're right, they are just guessing
Edit - See attached. Take these measurements with a grain of salt

The Louis-labeled Cal I owned was crazy nice. IMO nicer than almost every other Cal I have owned. This is a great jacket.
To those asking about AB- Cals never had ABs. Shoulder gussets sometimes. AB’s in this style look to Langlitz.

That’s a Vanson zipper, so I assume they made it like they make the Cycle King.

After the vague sizes given to me by the seller, and despite images/explanations of how to take a pit to pit measurements, the seller of the jacket is not being truthful about the measurements of the jacket. I think he is being this way because his jacket is smaller than what he advertised. I asked him straight out about the pit to pit and he keeps on stating the jacket is a 22 to 23.
Not cool.

I sent him a message before asking him to zip up the jacket to take the pit to pit. But this seller has a reselling background. Furthermore, I think the jacket is on the short side.

I bought it cause I'm clearly an idiot and a gambler. Bless refund policy - you might see this one back up here or on eBay soon. I'll post real measurements if it doesn't fit
Edit - Also if it ain’t fit then I’d obviously sell it here for what I paid for it, if anyone is interested. Gracias
