Rating Definition:

Excellent. The rifle retains 99% plus original blue and French gray finishes with only the slightest handling marks. There is some minor oxidation on the attaching floor plate metal and on the stock bolt. The salt wood stock is fine with crazed varnish on the buttstock and a couple hairline cracks near the floor plate.
