Mounted on a nicely figured checkered English walnut Schnabel forearm and straight grip stock with black plastic buttplate. Length of pull is 14 1/4 inches. With a brown leatherette case.

Excellent, 99% of the original blue finish remains with only some scattered minor handling marks and forearm wear. The coin finished components remain mostly bright with only a few scattered handling marks and a few small spots of minor discoloration. The forearm release lever is bent. The wood is also excellent with scattered dings and scratches. Mechanically excellent. The case is very good.
