Very fine. 95% plus original blue finish remains with some light surface scratches, traces of light spotting and handling marks overall. The wood is fine with well defined checkering and scattered small scratches and dings. The buttstock has been repaired at the top of the wrist and revarnished. Mechanically excellent.
