Rating Definition:

Fine. The barrel retains 70% of the faded original blue with the balance a smooth brown patina. The magazine tube retains 60% of the blue with the balance a smooth gray patina. The rest of the metal surfaces retain about 90% of the blue with gray patina on the high edges and smooth gray patina on the frame underside, action bar and trigger guard. The buttstock has been revarnished with a minor gash and a few minor dings. The slide handle has some minor dings and a couple mild chips. Mechanically excellent.
