Very fine as arsenal refurbished and subsequently restored back to World War II configuration, retaining much of the finish with minor edge wear, plum coloration on the barrel under with woodline, some minor splotching/thinning on the receiver, and minor handling marks. The stock is very good as sanded and re-oiled with a hairline crack directly behind the recoil plate along with numerous scattered light compression and handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
