Rating Definition:

Excellent, with 98% of the original blue finish, showing a few light handling marks and a small amount of edge wear overall. Strong niter blue is present on the safety and rear sight components, with a bright straw color on the trigger. Grips are excellent, with a few small pressure dents. Stock is very fine as reoiled, with a few small dings on the wood and 90% original niter blue remaining on the hinge. The original matching serialized attaching iron retains 60% of the original blue. Mechanically excellent.
