Good, showing a deep brown patina overall, with wear along the high edges and scattered spotting. The elevator is absent from the rear sight. The frame has turned a mixed brown and gray patina. Stock is also good, with dents and scratches. Buttplate is slightly ill-fitting at the bottom. Mechanically very good.
