Rating Definition:

Very fine. The rifle retains 75% original blue finish with the balance a smooth brown patina overall with a gray patina on the buttplate. There is some scattered light spotting. The breechblock retains some flashes of original case colors, otherwise has aged to a gray patina. The stock is also very fine with some minor dings and scratches. Mechanically excellent.
